so how good is the VT D

[upperdeck]

if you look at the stats pretty good.

but ECU gained 450 and threw for 360.. the stats in that game were almost dead even so the score being that lopsided, was there special teams plays that made a huge difference?

UNC only gained 130, VT only had 230.. some big turnovers in that slop fest and some fumbled snaps on S-Teams.

BC got dominated, but they cant throw at all either.

Tenn ran for almost 250 so didnt bother to throw

Liberty- just toss that one out.

So they have some great passing numbers on D, but pretty skewed by who they played and the weather.

We may not stop them but I think we can score..

Hey Syracuse fans. It is hard to know for sure, but those ECU stats are a bit deceiving. ECU didn't score any points in the first half. In the start of the 3rd we were leading 38-0, but ECU got two 75 yard passing plays before our defense discovered that they still need to play in the 2nd half. That said you are correct that special teams played a big part in that game. In the first half we returned a punt for a TD, blocked a FG and blocked a punt.
