No one is fooling anybody. This game can be won, but few people are actually expecting that to happen. The Offense is going to have to light an afterburner that few folks think that it has, at the moment (a healthy Khalil Herbert would be a sign). The Hokie defense is just really struggling this season. It’s not a complete struggle, it’s a 2/3rds and 3/4ths struggle. The Defense gets to 3rd and modest and can’t get the stop, or on critical 4th and shorts, it just can manage to keep the other team from getting the first down, consistently.
