The Virginia Tech Hokies roll in to Doak Campbell Stadium this Saturday (kickoff is 3:30pm, be there and be loud). Lots of good stories out there for everyone, and after the links I’ll add some thoughts of my own to the mix.

Nolesports.com looks to the past to determine the future, but talking about Bobby Bowden’s very successful record over VT Head Coach Frank Beamer.

Tomahawk Nation (guys you are rapidly becoming a great blog, keep it up!) has a Q & A with Gobbler Country.

Scott Carter’s NoleInsider has a great article on Dekoda Watson.

Andrew Carter has some good tidbits from Bobby Bowden’s weekly teleconference on his Chopping Block blog.

And what about me?

I think the Noles SHOULD pull this one out, but I’m not sure if they will. Does FSU have the talent? Yes. But the defense needs to play all 4 quarters on Saturday and the offense has to make a couple of big plays, while not giving VT any big plays. Special Teams will be important again, and thankfully Graham Gano has been hot with his foot.  Let’s hope he’s not overdue for a miss.

And one other thing, while I HATE the Hokie “Turkey Call” stuff… I do love their entrance at home…
