I like what ESPN did there.

As Matt Barrie said, something just feels right about VT on a Fall Thursday Night. For those that didn’t see, they basically showed 2 minutes of VT’s Enter Sandman entrance completely uninterrupted, the announcers just stayed silent and let you soak up the atmosphere.

Speaking of helmet logos, why the hell did VA Tech get away from the iconic maroon helmet with VT logo & maroon jerseys? Their uniforms look as bad as ours do.

Because it's what all schools do now for social media and to sell merchandise

Notice that aTm has hats and shirts with a script Aggies this year. However they kept their tradition aTm helmet logo.

Virginia Tech hasn't abandoned their maroon helmets and jerseys. Tonight was something VT calls "the orange effect" . . . so all of their fans are supposed to wear orange shirts, hats, etc. I guess that's why the VT players were wearing orange pants, orange jerseys, and white helmets.

I went to the VT game tonight (my daughter is a first-year there). The Enter Sandman intro was impressive.
