Virginia Tech Football: Updated Bowl Projections For the Hokies After Regular Season Ends
The regular season is now over and while this has still been a disappointing season for Virginia Tech given the expectations that the program had at the beginning of the year, but the Hokies are going to a second consecutive bowl game and they handled their biggest rival with ease last night.
The Hokies are not going to know where they are heading until next Sunday, after the Conference Championships are over and the College Football Playoff Field is set. With one week to go though, where is Virginia Tech projected to play?
Jerry Palm at CBS Sports has projected Virginia Tech to play in the Fenway Bowl in Boston, MA against East Carolina, a very familiar opponent for the Hokies. The programs have faecd each other 22 times previously and Virginia Tech holds the all time series lead 15-7.
At 247Sports, Brad Crawford has Virginia Tech in the Fenway Bowl as well, but playing Tulane instead of East Carolina. This would be a rematch of last year’s Military Bowl, a game in which Virginia Tech won 41-20. The Hokies lead the all-time series against Tulane 6-4.
At ESPN, both Kyle Bonagura and Mark Schlabach also have Virginia Tech going to Boston to play in the Fenway bowl. Bonagura has Virginia Tech facing Tulane like Crawford does, while Schlabach has them facing Memphis. Virginia Tech has faced Memphis six times previously and the all-time series is tied 3-3. They have not faced each other since 1985 and the Hokies have won the last three matchups between the Tigers.
There seems to be a consensus building that the Hokies are bound for Boston, but until the official selections are made, we won’t know for sure. Be sure to stay locked in here for the latest bowl projections for Virginia Tech.

West Virginia commit announces decision by blasting ‘Country Roads,’ lighting a couch on fire
A big moment in any student-athlete’s career is announcing what school they’re committing to, and I don’t think you’re going to find an announcement better than one we’ve got coming from one of the newest West Virginia Mountaineers.
What’s that smell? It… it smells like a couch burning to the sounds of the Mountaineers’ beloved John Denver “Take Me Home, Country Roads.”
You bet your sweet a– that’s what it is.
There’s a growing chance that any recruit who lights a couch on fire is going to end up wearing one of these. (Photo by Kevin Abele/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images)
Ethan Lawson is a 6’6″, 300-lb offensive lineman and part of the 2027 recruiting class.

According to Sport Illustrated he has fielded offers from a bunch of programs including Appalachian State, Liberty, Air Force, Army, Navy, Duke, Wake Forest, UConn and more.
But, they all missed out because Lawson posted his decision on X, and well… I think he was always West Virginia material.
Bobcat Goldthwait was burning couches on camera before it was cool.
But, alright, there’s no doubt about it: someone is about to sell some jerseys.

And if there’s not a furniture store in Morgantown that brings in Lawson and fellow offensive line recruit Kevin Brown (who also lit a couch on fire because that’s becoming a thing) for an ad, then… then, well, I don’t know what, but it would be quite the missed opportunity.

Hey, like it or not, sometimes in the age of NIL it can be a popularity contest. If fans like you, it could mean greater visibility and more lucrative deals. Perhaps that was the mission here, and we all know it worked.

I refuse to believe any Mountaineers fans saw that video, heard the song and then didn’t reflexively raise a beer (even if they didn’t realize they were drinking one and say, “Hell yeah, brother.”)
We’ll see if the sort of thing translates onto the field, but even if it doesn’t, I feel like there’s money to be made making appearances and lighting furniture on fire at frat parties.
