I watched the game on FS1 on DirectTV. Did anyone notice all the Sam Shepard USAA ads? I LMAO at that PAcuse pacusewife

What a win in typical fashion. My goodness what heart by LA. Great stop by the defense to set them up and finally a good call to their benefit. Let’s goooo!!

I’m still trying to figure out why 57 would chop block there. That move has been gone 15-20 years. Like how could he have ever learned that?

 

[Shenexon]

I’m still excited by a superb win. The game was very entertaining and we won, dammit! We gave them a bunch of points on special teams, tied the game at the end of regulation, and Lequint friggin Allen wouldn’t be denied to win a big game on the road.

We have some disturbing issues, but WOW do we have playmakers especially on offense. Gadsden had a good game without scoring, Allen had perhaps his best game, Willis had a great outing, and somehow McCord was able to sling that football 63 times. How about that TD pass to Meeks to tie the game at the end of regulation!?

Good teams make clutch plays to win games.
The defensive stand to force a UNLV field goal in OT and Allen’s Sumo move to score the winning TD were THAT kind of clutch. Kudos…

People need to enjoy this. Too much hand wringing.

Survive and advance.

Agreed. Enjoy the W. I will suggest that we stop the swing passes all game. UNLV was just waiting for that play we ran it too much.

BUT the W is a W.

McCord now has 2 drives late in the 4th quarter to tie or take the lead. Clutch.

Considering BC lost, NCSt. Lost Louiville lost. This is a great win, at the right time. Go CUSE

I like it when we not on the bottom

Part of my brain feels like this makes up for the Stanford loss. Like, both those games were basically coin flips at the end, and it evened out. And we did get pretty fortunate with that penalty.

The other part of my brain is like OMFG if we make one 4th and 9 stop vs. Stanford then we are probably ranked like 17th or something in this week's Top 25.

All good though. If we can win at NC State next week going into our second bye, all is well in the universe at 5-1. That gives us a long time to prepare for Thursday night at Pitt.

The rest of these games are basically coin flips unless we can fix ST and get some key players back.

Im assuming he’s still 2 weeks out

Yeah except for the coming off a bye part

 

[CuseFan]

So happy that we pulled that out, after spotting UNLV 14 points.
Offense played well and blocked decently, although I thought they went to he side pass way too often. D bend and not break mode mostly held as well.

Great win. Correct the ST quickly please!

Slept great last night!

That game? THAT’s what happens in Vegas! Epic.

Classic. Stereotypical scrawny Meth Desert Rat. F him and his toothless Arse

And Meeks has been on the receiving end of those drives

VaTech 31-7 over Stanford

 

[two3zone]

I fell asleep on my couch in my man cave at some point when we were ahead 31-21. I woke up at 2:30 AM to see we won. I saved my heart a lot of stress.

Honestly, I loved watching every second. Give it a watch if you can. We obviously could've done better but it was awesome to watch.

It's always the little guys.

VaTech 31-7 over Stanford

Woohoo!

 

[David321]

First time we have had two wins over ranked opponents since 2001.

VaTech 31-7 over Stanford

Luckily we have the wins over GT and now away at UNLV so that should just be a speed bump with a new staff hopefully in the bigger picture. Stanford with Lamson looked putrid on offense. Even with our poor performance had we faced Lamson we probably destroy them.
