- Game breakdown: James Franklin and Virginia Tech are on the road this weekend after back-to-back convincing wins inside Lane Stadium to kick off the 2026 season.

- WR/TE: WR/TE 3 getting half the targets of WR/TE 1 & 2 seems normal to me.

- Injury: You are right...Fat Rat is one of the fastest players on the team.

- Here’s how to catch all the action as Virginia Tech travels to Maryland for the first road contest of the season Saturday at 7:30 p.m. - TV: The game will be televised on FS1 with Eric Collins and Spencer Tillman on the call.

- Pick/market: He’s definitely trasnferring after this year tho we can bring all of our starters back next year I think a lot of guys out of that room will transfer after this year expect atleast...

- Virginia Tech's Kyle Altuner worked alongside Montavious Cunningham on the first observed offensive-line double-team rep, with linemen practicing progression to second-level defenders. The reporter viewed that pairing as a possible starting-lineup clue for Maryland, not a confirmed lineup announcement; media access covered only 20 minutes. - Virginia Tech receivers worked on route breaks and catches over the middle, while tight ends emphasized short routes and getting open when plays break down. Running backs practiced ball security with coaches punching at the ball in a gauntlet drill. These are observed practice priorities, not evidence that a new passing scheme or backfield role has been installed. - Virginia Tech's defensive line and linebackers drilled run fits and gap responsibilities, with Brent Pry correcting mistakes. Linebackers also worked on low tackling technique, and defensive backs repeatedly practiced locating the ball and turning toward the passer. The report describes technique and assignment emphasis, not new personnel or coverage assignments. - In Virginia Tech's observed pass-rush one-on-ones, Cortez Harris beat Justin Terry quickly before Terry won his next rep against Kaleb Spencer. The reporter liked Aidan Lynch's work, with a possible loss to Mylachi Williams. The drill appeared to simulate Maryland's edge speed, but the short window and poor view of interior reps limit conclusions about the full line.

- LB: Interesting...45 years old and I still say Hey when people say "Hi"..thanks for getting me squared away, although i will probably keep saying "Hey" out of habit..

- LB: True, but on here there is never any belief in development, it is always we gotta get that from the portal.

- LB: probably best suited to spend big on one real difference maker at DT and then bank on one of Adirika, Laws, Mensah, or Johnson developing into a starter

- Coaching: OK, thought I'd weigh in here, since this thread has kept on rolling ...

- Pick/market: 34-17 We double them up and cover the spread easily for the 3rd straight game.

- QB/LB: Buy or Sell: Virginia Tech at Maryland https:// techsideline.com/article/2026/0 9/17/buy-or-sell-virginia-tech-at-maryland … 1.

- OL/LB: Agreed, ODU forced us to beat them through the air, and Howle/Grunk did just that.

- RB/TE: I didn't see much from him, but I will say I am less worried about the tackles because you can chip with TE's and RB's more easily there.

- QB/LB: 1st team D line dominated, our qb passed the ball well, Our tight ends are a mismatch, Q Brown is electric, we have a great kicker.

- OL/LB: He should be the starter anyways.

- Pick/market: Glass Half Full, we will not be complacent at all going into next week.

- OL/LB: Ugly-ish win, but tons of coaching points and you better believe Franklin will be chewing them out for the 2nd half performance.

- LB: We are to far behind in almost everything to expect a P2 bid but hopefully we can get there.

- Game breakdown: BLACKSBURG – Virginia Tech football looks to remain unbeaten after putting on a convincing win in James Franklin's debut last weekend against VMI.

- OL/LB: if we are both talking about specifically the o line then we should be able to after they are playing terribly.

- LB: Touchdown, #Hokies, as we get an Aycen Stevens’ sack, fumble and LB Keon Wylie ran it in from 46 yards out.....BUT.....he dropped the ball as he crossed the goal line.
