The date of Virginia Tech’s 2008 football game at Nebraska has been changed.
The game was originally scheduled to take place on September 20, but will now be
held on September 27.
With the change, the Hokies now have two open dates in September, 2008, on
September 13 and September 20. One of those dates will likely be filled by a
yet-to-be-named out of conference opponent from the MAC. Bowling Green was
supposed to play the Hokies in 2008, but that meeting has been pushed back to
2012.
Game time and television coverage for Virginia Tech-Nebraska has not been
announced. It will be televised by one of the ESPN networks, ABC, or Fox Sports
Net. The 2008 football schedule in its entirety will be released by early
February.
The Hokies are still scheduled to play the Cornhuskers on September 19, 2009
in Lane Stadium.
TSL’s Future
Football Schedules Page has been updated with the new information.
Richmond Basketball Game Tip-off Time Moved
The start of the Virginia Tech-Richmond basketball game on January 3 has been
moved. The game was originally scheduled to begin at 7pm, but will now start at
6pm. The game is at Richmond, and will be televised by CSTV.
The start of the basketball game was moved so that fans could watch the
entire game and still be able to catch all of the Orange Bowl, which airs that
night at 8pm. The Hokies will take on Kansas in Miami, and the game will be
televised by ABC.
Reminder: This Sunday’s home game with George Washington will also be
televised. Tip-off is scheduled for 5:30, and the game will be televised by FSN.
Project Thank You is Underway
Project Thank You returns! The annual effort to show our appreciation for the football players is back. What’s PTY? It’s a plan to get personal notes from poster to player to say “thank you” for all the effort and sacrifices throughout the season. We’ve sent over 5,00 notes in past years.
As always EVERYBODY is welcome and encouraged to participate — members,
posters, lurkers, everybody.
For those of you who were around last year (or the last few years), you might
recall what Project Thank You is all about. If you don’t recall, or if you’ve
joined the TechSideline.com family since then, please click the link below for
an explanation and instructions.
