FBS Mission Statement:

We at FBS believe that offensive coordinator Bryan Stinespring bears the largest share of the blame for years of sub-par output from some of the most talented players ever to set foot on Worsham Field. We believe the main objective of the VT football program - a national championship - will escape us as long as Stinespring is making the calls. We therefore advocate the improvement of our football program through the replacement of our offensive coordinator.

Official FBS Orange Bowl Festivus Post: Airing of Grievances Edition

I thought it might be cool to set up a post specifically for us FBSer's to respond to before, during and after the game tonight. Post your thoughts, your complaints, your praises and really anything that crosses your mind in relation to tonight's game.

I plan on trying to post throughout the game, but I'm feeling a tad bit under the weather, so don't fault me if I don't tow the line as much as the rest of you.

My keys to win: 

Turnover Margin - We've been fantastic in the TM so far this season (due mostly to the defense being able to take the ball away so often), and we're up against a team that has maintained a winning record despite coughing up the ball 26 times this season.

Tyrod Taylor - A large portion of our success will be based on the success or failure of this young man. His decisions in the pocket could easily mean the difference between a sack and a large gain.

The Line of Scrimmage - With a relatively untested Jaymes Brooks filling in for Sergio Render, who switched over to cover Nick Marshman's vacated starting spot, we could be in for a tough game down front. As a defensive coordinator, I know I would throw every stunt and blitz I have at this kid to try and expose his weaknesses early on. Some staff have suggested that if he isn't up to the task, we may see Ryan Shuman move out to Guard, and Beau Warren come in at center. Not exactly the best place and time to be playing musical chairs here, Stiney...

Go Hokies!!!
