Holt Starting Thursday?

It seems more and more likely that 3rd string quarterback Cory Holt will be starting for Virginia Tech on Thursday against Maryland.

I think Holt will go, but if he struggles, don't be surprised if Tyrod Taylor and or Sean Glennon make an appearance.

Hopefully the outcome of this game will be slightly better then the last time the Terps played in Blacksburg. (Ugh, I made the trip down from College Park for that game and it was one of the worst experiences ever).

I think the Terps will go down there and take care of business...hopefully they can run the ball and control the time of possession battle. I think it will be a close game and won't be decided until late in the 4th quarter.

VT's QBs

In case you hadn't heard somehow, both Tyrod Taylor and Sean Glennon - VT's two top QBs - got hurt during the VT-FSU game on Sunday. Taylor had a left ankle sprain on the first quarter, and, somewhat ironically, Glennon also had a high ankle sprain later in the game. Cory Holt, a seldom-used fifth year senior, took their place, and actually played pretty well.

After taking some tests on Sunday, it's been determined that they are "questionable" for the game against Maryland on Nov. 6. Both will wear boots the next couple of days and not practice.
