Virginia Tech Hokies vs. Miami Hurricanes: Talking Turkey Previews the Game

How often do we have to tee up a contest versus our old Big East Rivals “The U” before the media counts it as a rivalry. The first big contest that got national attention was the 1980 Peach Bowl when Bill Dooley’s Hokies managed to not get obliterated by Jim Kelly and the Hurricanes. It’s been a full on feud since then. It just rarely gets the national attention, but we know the truth, and Miami is coming to Blacksburg with a star transfer dual threat Quarterback (our nightmare) and some defensive issues. Miami’s been winning by putting the pedal to the metal and scoring points.
