Two Deep Podcast

That sound you hear is the Hokies crashing back down to earth. After 15 years of dominance, Tech finally lost the Commonwealth Cup to UVA. Pete and Robbie recap what went wrong in the game, but try to focus on the positive steps the team took this season. The guys then turn the page to bowl projections and the search for VT's new defensive coordinator. This is a pivotal moment in the program; hopefully, Whit and Fuente bring someone in that can carry on Bud's Lunch Pail Defense legacy.

Bud Foster does it again! Another shutout, this time in his last home game. What a performance by the defense, holding Pat Narduzzi's undisciplined squad to less than 200 yards and an embarrassing zero on the scoreboard. Pete and Robbie recap every detail before shifting their focus to Hate Week. The battle for the Coastal division once again comes down to the Commonwealth Cup and the guys are psyched. An opportunity to face Clemson in the ACC Championship Game, as well as an Orange Bowl birth, is on the line. Not to mention #TheStreak. Here's hoping the Hokies make it 16 straight over UVA!

Before the Hokies took GT to the woodshed, Pete got to spend some time talking to former VT football players Eric Gallo and Joshua Oglesby. From the recruiting process, to some of their favorite moments on the field, Eric and Josh spoke openly and honestly about their time at Virginia Tech. It was really cool to get their perspective on the program. Huge thank you to two of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. Enjoy!

Bud Foster was the story this past weekend in Blacksburg, and the lunch pail defense certainly did right by him in a 36-17 win over Wake Forest. Pete and Robbie recap how the Hokies stifled Wake's fast-paced attack, and finally praise Coach Corn for his effective play-calling. Up next is a trip to Atlanta with bowl eligibility on the line for VT. Can Fuente's young team handle their new found success and take care of business in the Techmo Bowl? We'll find out on Saturday.

That was a punch in the gut. The VT upset was a long shot when the game started, but it seemed like the Hokies were going to pull it off until the final 30 seconds. Despite the painful ending, it was an extremely valiant effort by Fuente's undermanned squad. Let's hope some of that fight spills over into the Wake Forest matchup. The Demon Deacons are 7-1 and they currently have hopes for a New Year's 6 birth. Tech can play spoiler, move one step closer to bowl eligibility, and get its first win over a top 25 opponent in Lane since 2009. Plenty to play for. With four conference games left in the 2019 season, let's get this final stretch started off right. Go Hokies!

The honeymoon is over. For Pete, and for the team. Recharged and refreshed after the thrilling UNC victory, VT heads to South Bend this weekend hoping for an upset. The guys catch you up on where the Hokies stand through their first seven games before diving deep on the Irish. A win would change the way we perceive this team drastically. Let’s hope the boys can pull it off!

A VT game to remember for sure. The Hokies beat UNC in the first 6OT game since the new rules have been implemented and the longest game in ACC history. If you didn't watch it, go back, and make sure your stomach is empty. A great performance by this team, and ahead of a big bye week before ND. Hope you enjoy it and Stick It In!

So that week is behind us.  VT found some improvement on offense, and perhaps rehashed some of the same struggles on defense.  That said, we are 4-2 heading into ACC games, with a bit more daunting road ahead than maybe we expected.  Pete is enjoying time away, so Robbie brought on a fan to co-host.  Big thanks to Devon, and let's get a big home win this week.  Go Hokies!

That's how you respond. The Hokies bounced back in a big way with a much needed victory over Miami. Robbie and Pete recap all the action, and discuss the immediate impact of new starting QB Hendon Hooker. The guys stress the importance of managing expectations going forward, but are still very excited about the young quarterback's potential. Rhode Island is up next, and while VT should take of of business, no game is a walk in the park for this current batch of Hokies. Stick around for a bit of UNC talk and ATS picks at the end. Man, does beating Miami feel good! Enjoy it.
