Last Year’s Foolish Prediction
Posted at 10:25 pm on Sunday, August 7th, 2005 by VinceI came across this post on the mighty mjd sports blog from about one year ago, just after the USC game.
The mighty mjd referred to this column by Matt Hayes that Virginia Tech hit the ceiling in 1999 and was in decline. While mjd’s reasons were rediculous, I love this prediction: I can’t envision Tech winning a conference championship or playing in a big-time bowl anytime soon. With that, recruiting takes a hit. With that, everything goes down hill. But other than that, I’m sure the ACC will be a lot of fun for them.
It gives me warm fuzzies to read these opinions knowing that we are now the defending champions of the ACC.
