I was starting to think that those two awful plays in the first half were going to be our undoing. It was sweet to finally see Virginia Tech get beaten on a special teams play. Great job T.J. Lee, who was a one man show on that play, blocking the punt, recovering it and returning it for the winning touchdown. I have heard all over the boards that this was an upset, but I think anyone that was paying attention knew this was going to be a dogfight. If we win next week, that would be an upset. WVU is a great football team that is coming off a solid victory over Villanova. I think we have a better than average chance of pulling the upset at home riding the momentum of this week's win over VT. I mean, how much can West Virginia really find out about their team playing Villanova? If the Wildcats were able to stay on the field with them, I feel confident that we will not be blown out like we were last year against them.

Enjoy the feeling Pirate fans. Mission #1 Accomplished!
