Want Franklin to finally earn his nickname "Big Game James" on Oct 2nd by giving Pat Narduzzi and Pitt a big a___ whooping.  35 -10 is my prediction for what I hope will be a VT win.....

Well, AI and the odds makers disagree with my feelings on the VT vs. Pitt game this year.  According to my Google search:

"As of late May 2026, early betting lines for the 2026 college football season favor the Pittsburgh Panthers slightly over the Virginia Tech Hokies for their matchup on Friday, October 2, 2026. [1, 2]
  • Initial Lines: Early odds listed Pittsburgh as a 3.5-point favorite, with a consensus line settling around Pitt -2.5.
  • Game Context: The game is scheduled to take place at Lane Stadium in Blacksburg, VA.
  • Projected Outlook: Despite the betting line, some analysts have highlighted a potential path for Virginia Tech to enter this game with a 4-0 record, noting it as a winnable game for the Hokies. [1, 2, 3]
This matchup is widely viewed as a pivotal early-season ACC clash, with some projections even suggesting it could be a battle of ranked teams if Virginia Tech's projected fast start under new leadership holds true. [1, 2]"

I’m sure JF will have a great season with Grunk as his QB. Lot of Penn St players are there.

How about us?? I'm not so sure MC will have a great season with Rocco as his QB.  Lot of Iowa St players are here.  Sorry, Southern, I couldn't resist it, lol!

VT won’t be as good as us but they will be good. I believe we gotta a chance to make some noise and win the big 10 championship. MC and what he’s accomplished these last 5 months ain’t gettin enough credit. Trust me we will be very good this year! 12-1 big 10 champs playing in the playoffs yall heard it here first. I feel that good about this team from connecting all the dots the last 5 months. I make these predictions on our QB staying healthy.

Kinda like ND playing Suckyasscuse. I can't decide who I want to lose the most, but there's enough schadenfreude going either way to make me smile.

sPitt vs VT is not a “big game” and will have no bearing on JF’s reputation. I couldn’t care less who wins.

Not sure, I was a soft VT Fan as I thought Beemer and VT was kind of like Paterno/PSU Junior.  Now I seem to want confirmation that divorcing JF was the right thing.

In reality JF has to be a step up for VT's last couple of years.  And he doesn't have as many BIG games to fail at.

It may be a game that I switch who I am for as the game goes on.

@southern-psu-fan Not our players anymore. Can't bring myself to pick sides in this one. But I will check the final score.

I don't care, this guy has shown the clown that he is since being fired. Talks about how he was blindsided and waxes poetic about how he deserved better...

...all ehile he told Vandy he wasn't leaving and then said dueces as he sprinted out the door leaving them hanging. Hypocrite of the finest order.

Also claims he "turned down many offers" during his time here. Yeah okay... another way to put that is your agent kept your name in the press for other jobs so you could consistently get more money and sign bigger extentions. 

The guy jas no damn shame

Me thinks Roam hit the nail square on with that assessment of Big Game James!

  I believe all of us on here knew something wasn’t right the last 3 or 4 years under the leadership of James Franklin even though we were making the playoffs and winning 11 and 13 games 3 or 4 times but something just wasn’t right. Now we know. I remember coming back from the peach bowl in Atlanta saying man something ain’t right I can’t believe what I paid $1000 to watch and I wanted my money back 😂

If he loses to Pitt we will have to hear his cliches.

  • Establish the run
  • Complimentary Football
  • I take responsibility

Guess I'll root for VT, I can't handle his interviews 🙁

@underlion I’ve been a fan of James Franklin for a long time because I like the dude. I still believe he’s a good coach and I believe VT hit a home run getting JF he’s the best they’ll ever do and he’s got some good football players. He’s a Ralph Friedgen man and Ralph and George O’Leary are my second favorite coaches them dudes were bad ass coaches baby you better believe that. I just don’t understand some of his decisions. I’ll pull for VT in the Pitt games and I’ll be pulling for the Penn St players that left unless they play GT or Penn State especially Penn St
