Well, the 2010 football schedule is finally out and it is, in a word, meh. The Hokies play five out of conference games and the toughest game is their season opener against Boise State. Other than the Broncos, the Hokies play JMU, East Carolina and Central Michigan, all at home. And the JMU game is five days after the season opener. Overall, it’s a pretty weak schedule and if the Hokies are going to work their way into the national championship talk, they’ll need to run the table and do so in dominating fashion.
In conference, the Hokies are on the road against Boston College, N.C. State, North Carolina and Miami. Tech has Wake Forest, Duke, Georgia Tech and Virginia at home. Enough babbling, here’s the schedule:
9/6 | vs. Boise State (8 p.m., ESPN, FedEx Field)
9/11 | vs. James Madison
9/18 | vs. East Carolina
9/25 | @ Boston College
10/2 | @ N.C. State
10/9 | vs. Central Michigan
10/16 | vs. Wake Forest
10/23 | vs. Duke
11/4 | vs. Georgia Tech
11/13 | @ North Carolina
11/20 | @ Miami
11/27 | vs. Virginia

It all comes down to November.
Your NC State and Wake games are backwards – it’s @NC State, than Wake in Blacksburg.
I don’t like it much, but given that these are set sometimes seven years in advance there’s not much to say about it. The JMU series is a little baffling, but I’m looking forward to the ECU matchup – I expect a win, but they’re playing everyone tough. Would really like to get rid of the Central Michigan matchup – enough with the Western/Eastern/No One Cares What Direction You Are games!
