Like it or not, this game has serious national championship implications. Virginia Tech likely won't be in national championship contention, of course, but if Boise gets the win tonight then it's all downhill from here, with only a couple of semi-legitimate tests standing between them and an undefeated season. And with no offense intended to the Broncos, if you're an Alabama fan seriously hoping the Tide can repeat as national champions, Boise represents a potential turd in the punch bowl, so hopefully the Hokies can put an end to this one before it begins.

In any event, kick-off tonight is at 7:00 central at FedEx Field in Landover, Maryland, and the game will be televised on ESPN. Chime in here with all of your thoughts and comments.
