Norfolk, Va.
When I asked a prominent Old Dominion booster last Saturday night whether he would prefer a victory over Virginia Tech or a bowl bid, he didn’t hesitate.
“Beat Tech,” he said.
It was early in the first quarter. Neither I nor the booster, who will remain unnamed, thought it was possible.
Well, in case you were on Mars and missed it, the heretofore 0-3 Monarchs outscored the No. 13 Hokies 28-7 in the fourth quarter to claim a 49-35 victory, the most momentous triumph in school history.
Yes, adding a bowl game, and a bowl victory would be nice, too.
