Editor's note: BilldozerVT and mstrawther outdid themselves this year. If there's any post on TKP to make use of the share buttons below, it is this one. Enjoy! — Joe

Every member of Hokie Nation can relate to that feeling you get when August rolls around. The preseason polls are released, and summer camps around the country are poised to open. For the first time in the offseason you begin to actually believe that football is going to happen soon.

Objective analysis and reality agree that you should not get your hopes up for an undefeated season. To that I say "screw it". Put on your orange and maroon glasses. Tell anyone who will listen that this is going to be the best Virginia Tech football team in years. The rebuild is over. All the youth on offense Tech has depended on is hardened, experienced and paired with a veteran Bud Foster defense. This team is hungry, and I am excited.

Expectations are high and we will find out Labor Day night just what kind of team we have on our hands. Press play on the trailer and hop on that hype train with me.
