We have another big time game this weekend in a venue that will test our team without a doubt. Great experience for the younger guys and an opportunity to continue moving in the right direction.
 
My question is: which game was your personal favorite "Big Time" game to watch in person either at the Dome or on the road.
 
My personal favorite, VT vs Syracuse in the Carrier Dome circa 1998. The throwback to Brominski happened right in front of me and I stormed the field in my formative years. This moment further solidified a love for Syracuse that has yet to diminish.
 
Being down pretty big at half, I remember still having a feeling that we were the better team that day and we were going to make a move in the 2nd half. My father can verify, because as he looked at me at halftime and said, do you want to get out of here early, I told him he was crazy and that we were going to make a run. Down 21-6, I told him at half that we were going to win 30-28. That prophecy didn't hold, but the W did.
 
As a momento of that day, I have the ESPN2 banner that hung on the guard rail directly in front of me in the 1st row. It hangs in my garage.
 
McNabb had 21 carriers for 121 that day on top of 15-32 for 232 and 2 TD's. He was sacked 7 times.
