Sugar - Wooh Honey Honey

It is official! Virginia Tech Hokies (#8 BCS) and Auburn Tigers (#3 BCS) will meet in Sugar Bowl at New Orleans, La. How I wish I can go to New Orleans and cheer for the hokies. The TV coverage of ABC however will do. :)

Looking back, the hokies started ranked #38 by SportsIllustrated and #37 by College Football News. They are predicted to struggle to even get a decent bowl game in December. The ACC in fact never considered inviting Virginia Tech into the conference at first. It is sweet that the hokies end up being the ACC champions and earn a BCS berth at Sugar Bowl in their inagural season.

The hokies are now ranked #6 by College Football News, ranked #9 in both AP and Coaches polls, and #8 by BCS.
