VT is overrated ND is the toughest team left in our schedule and its not even a discussion if you just compare who ND has played and beaten easily vs comparing who VT has played.

Both VT and ND look legit. But we have all the talent to play with them ourselves. We will need to play much more complete games than we are now. The emotion of both of those rivalries should help us. Need Donaldson back and 100% as well to help establish the run in both those games. And we really need to play the run better on defense, but that goes without saying.
 
Notre Dame is the hardest game on the schedule but both teams can beat us. VaTech is the game that we need to win the most.

This. I would love to beat ND for all of the obvious reasons but VT is a must win if we want to have a special season.

Va Tech couldn’t do anything against clemson whereas Syracuse on both sides of the ball did so who knows. We will see what happens when we play. Bottom line this game is at home, won’t be easy but it’s not an unwinnable game either
 
Justin Fuente was a great hire for VT, keep telling your self that VT is overrated...
 
VT is good. Glad we got them at home. They don't run the ball all that well, so that should bode well for us. They try to bounce everything outside. I'll need to see them throw the ball against a good team to think their throw game is top notch. They're good though. Best part about that team is those Edmunds lunatics. Those 2 guys destroy gameplans.

ND played yesterday as well as anyone I've seen this year not named Alabaga. If they're firing on all cylinders like last night, they'll be favored to beat us. They've completely turned their team around this year with the DC hire from Wake. And Wimbush brings the legs to the QB position that they missed last year with Kizer. That RB Adams should be a Heisman finalist. I haven't seen anyone do anything with him this year. Maybe they have, but I must not have seen those games. He's the best RB I've seen this year.

We could lose to ND and still make the playoffs if we win the rest and beat a 1 loss CLemson team

Disagree. One loss ACC team has a slim of getting in, and I mean slim. A one loss Bama, UGA, Pedo State, OSU, and ND will all get in ahead of us. If Bama and UGA meet in the SEC Champ game as undefeated teams, that's two playoff slots already taken because the loser of that game is still getting in.

Need PSU to beat OSU next weekend.

It’s lining up nicely with our home schedule for remaining games but I still have an uneasy feeling about UNC. It’s your classic trap game before our 2 biggest games of the year. It’s on the road on Halloween weekend - I remember losing there on the same weekend years back. Not liking that spot at all even though they suck
