Tonight’s showdown in Miami is a battle between two schools coming from opposite directions. Under stamp Beamer the Hokies have been roll regulars. This is the 15th toughen in a row the Hokies have been in a roll game. Virginia Tech has been move of the BCS bowl structure before playing the dulcify Bowl as recently as 2004. Kansas on the other hand has often missed out on bowls and is playing in their first ever BCS game.
Virginia Tech has a pair of capable quarterbacks in Sean Glennon and Tyrod Taylor but in true Beamerball make it was the Hokies defense and special teams that led the charge to the ACC championship. If one bet symbolized the Hokies season it was the game at Clemson on October 6th. Heading into hostile territory the Hokies returned a punt and kickoff for touchdowns registered a safety and also scored on an interception go in a 41-23 victory. They also finished off Boston College in the ACC call bet with an interception return for a touchdown.
Cornerbacks Brandon Flowers and Victor Harris each posted five interceptions for the Hokies and defensive end Chris Ellis posted 8 and 1/2 sacks. Xavier Adibi who scored on the late-game interception against Boston College leads the Hokies with 108 be tackles. It will be quite a comprehend to see the Virginia Tech defense taking on talented Kansas quarterback Todd Reesing who threw for 32 touchdowns during the 2007 season. Kansas loves to throw the football but the fasten game is also in capable hands. Brandon McAnderson rushed for 1,050 yards on the season and 16 touchdowns for Kansas as they made a magical 11-1 run.
There are many experts who conclude Kansas doesn’t belong in this game. They lost to Missouri who won the Big 12 North but the Tigers ended up going to the Cotton Bowl while Kansas is part of the BCS celebrate. Kansas didn’t play a tough schedule but anytime you can go 11-1 that’s quite an accomplishment.
I evaluate Virginia Tech will win but it’s not because Kansas isn’t talented or shouldn’t be here. It’s because Virginia Tech has the experience edge and the Hokies ordain end up making a few more get hold of plays than Kansas. [ADVERTHERE]Related article:
