Two Deep: Hokies Under The Influence

This episode focuses on the big win down in Atlanta and previews Frank's last home game versus UNC. The Hokies can become bowl eligible with a win this weekend, and the importance of the game is not lost on the guys. Stick around until the end for ACC picks as well as "college story time", where Robbie gives us the final installment of the Brendon trilogy.

This song was obviously made in honor of Frank's upcoming retirement. The beat is from "Right Above It" by Lil Wayne and Drake.

In this week's episode, the guys take a look at VT's season stats before previewing GT. It seems Dogfish Head beers are the perfect compliment to cursing the triple option. ACC picks are also made. It's just Pete and Robbie this week (no fun guests), deal with it.

In part two of this monster podcast, Joe and the guys discuss the top candidates to replace Frank. They each give their favorites, as well as some sleeper candidates you may not have thought of. Robbie also interviews Joe about what's going on over at The Key Play, how he built and maintains that community, and what TKP has in store for its readers over the next few months. Really, really good stuff if you're a fan of the site.

In part one of this two part podcast, Joe Lanza, editor of thekeyplay.com, joins the guys to help them break down the win over BC and the announcement that Head Coach Frank Beamer will retire at the end of the season. They discuss what Frank means to the program, the legacy he leaves behind, and how the VT job looks to the outside.

Addazio, bad offense, and good defense; that's what BC is this year. The guys talk about their playmakers and give their keys to the game.

Mike helps the guys pick this week's match-ups. Thursday provides the best game of the weekend in the ACC with UNC going to no. 23 Pitt, Clemson at NC State could be fun, and our beloved Hokies take on BC as a slim favorite on the road.

Mike McDaniel from insidetheacc.com joins the guys to discuss all things Hokie football. Topics included Beamer's potential retirement, poor coaching decisions, heartbreaking defeat, and how we'll attack BC's ferocious defense. ACC picks are made and Pete recalls an anecdote involving an unused condom in "college story time".

This week's song uses the beat from Kanye West's "Homecoming".

The Hokies take another loss and the guys vent about it. They tackle what went wrong and theorize on why the team seems to be playing with no emotion. In the second half of the episode the focus turns to Duke. The Blue Devils will bring a strong D to Blacksburg and have a bunch of playmakers, including safety DeVon Edwards, who leads the nation in yards per kick return. ACC picks get made as well. It's homecoming, so come back to the podcast, we've missed you.

This song is about Al Golden's tenuous grasp on his job. It uses the beat from Ignition Remix by R. Kelly. 

This segment of our Cellar recording previews the Miami game. We were kind of drunk by this point and it was recorded before the Miami/FSU game. It should be noted that we failed to mention Miami WR Stacy Coley. He hadn't played the previous three games, but he broke out against FSU with 7 catches, 139 yards, and a TD; definitely another name to watch.

Mason Naumann of thekeyplay.com joins the guys at The Cellar in Blacksburg. Powder puff football, VT's offensive identity, and our "fake it until you make it" defense all get covered in this interview. Follow him @3rdand31 on Twitter.

Matthew Warner of the allsportsdiscussion.com podcast joins the guys for an interview at The Cellar in Blacksburg. They talk ACC football division races, what to look for against Miami, and even get ACC basketball predictions from Matthew. Follow him @hokiesmash on twitter.

Recorded at The Cellar, this week's episode recaps the big win against NC State and previews the upcoming Miami game. The guys were also joined by Mason Naumann of thekeyplay.com and Matthew Warner of the All Sports Discussion podcast. Many drinks were consumed and a good time was had by all.

This week's song uses the beat from Zac Brown Band's "Chicken Fried". It's a happier song than the last two and hopefully it changes our luck.

The guys lament yet another Tech loss, and have a brief state of the program discussion before previewing the matchup against NC State. Mike from Raleigh sent in some thoughts on the Wolfpack, and Pete remembers being a jerk during "college story time". You might say this episode is... packed...   Sorry, we really hope you still listen.

This week's song uses the beat from "See You Again" by Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth. A sad song for a sad week.

After the tough loss to ECU, Robbie and Pete turn to pumpkin beers for comfort; a little bit of sweet to go with their salty attitudes. The guys preview the matchup against Pitt and Robbie recalls an odd roommate in "college story time". It's the start of ACC play; a tradition unlike any other. #goacc

This week's song uses the beat from "What's The Difference" by Dr. Dre. Short song this week.
