What are your expectations of Virginia Tech football in 2013?

Baltimore Hokie: Wouldn’t it be nice to just say ‘ten wins’ and be done with it?

That said – it’s hard to have high expectations given the way we finished out 2012.  We could possibly have a very good defense.  But it’s asking a lot of the new coaches to field an offense that’s the caliber of the 2010-11 units.

One of the main problems last season was with returning starters ‘regressing.’  We saw this not just in Logan, but in the defensive front seven as well.  That trend has to be reversed.  Our DL two deep has to start the season ‘new and improved.’  We can’t afford any more games like last season’s Pitt and UNC debacles, and that starts up front.  From there, the defense will have to endure the absence of Exum for at least a few games, but I like the LBs and the rest of the backfield.
