That would make for a good match up. Tech is one of the ACC teams I'd like to play more often. Nothing but love for the Hokies. Was a shame Clemson beat them in the ACC championship last season.

I'll take it! It all starts with NC State though.

I like the match up, but doubt the bowl picks a team that opens up in Charlotte and a team they had last year. Could see the matchup, but in TaxSlayer or Music City.

All of this is talking season. There's 12 games before the bowl game!

I predict snow on Jan 4

Fixed it for you

[Nureye]

I'll take that for sure.

Good matchup. We recruit against VT a good bit so it'd be interesting in that regard. I can already see a "hokies" & "gamecocks" bird debate on TV.

Don't underestimate Virginia Tech.

Or 247's way too early bowl predictions.

Would be a huge game for recruiting purposes in the Carolinas. Virginia Tech has targeted the Carolinas as a key recruiting territory under Fuente. They think they have a great story to tell to get kids in these states to come up there and play which is why they have been major players with Brad Johnson, Dax Hollifield, etc etc recently.

Another article had us playing Louisville. I'd like to see either one of those match ups.

Im not sure I would like to play Louisville with as many unknowns we have on defense.

Louisville will probably be running with Clemson for 2nd place in the ACC. I'm not familiar with the ACC bowl selection process, but my guess is that they will be contending for the Orange or an at large bid for the ACC.

What uniforms are we wearing for the Belk Bowl?

I saw a tweet with a sick chrome helmet. Anyone else see this?

I've been told it's black on black with a garnet chrome helmet made just for the belk bowl.

My sources say Belk will design our uniforms for the game. Going to look spectacular under the lights of BoA stadium the night of December 27th. HUGE opportunity to recruit and get the kids excited over the Belk sponsorship!

This concerns me greatly - Belk is pretty Old South conservative. Would be wearing Polos with khakis and penny loafers?

I can't disclose that information but it will be known when the time is right.
