Competing against #1 Georgia Football and coach Coach Kirby Smart was an honor today. IMO he’s the leader. Hate losing, love how we competed. #WingsUp #AimHigh

It's official! Saturday's game between ODU and Virginia Tech is a sellout: trib.al/mUuDg24

“It’s just another game.” Ali Jennings returns to S.B. Ballard Stadium with the #Hokies. pilotonline.com/2024/09/12/he-…

"With all due respect to everybody else, I want us to prove it to ourselves." Two games in, ODU still seeks its first win: pilotonline.com/2024/09/13/win…

Hampton wide receiver Kevin Johnson will be playing with his “hair on fire” during the Battle of the Bay tomorrow. Johnson started his career at Norfolk State and is one of three players to play for both HU and NSU. trib.al/AjiHu7S

🏈🏈 Winless ODU seeks ‘internal’ validation in home game against Virginia Tech, writes David Hall. pilotonline.com/2024/09/13/win…

NSU injuries: Thomas and WR Elyjah Mitchell are the only ones on the sideline with a jersey and no pads. A handful other players are not in pads but aren't wearing jerseys and I can't make out their faces from the pressbox. Will wait on more names from the SID.

Chris Zellous is the first QB out for Hampton this afternoon. The Pirates' first drive will start at the HU25 yard line.

Q2 8:37 | Hampton 9, Norfolk State 0 *Another* three and out for the Norfolk State offense. Hampton's defense has been phenomenal so far this afternoon. HU will take over at its own 28 after the punt.

"He’s a fast dude, a little Johnny Manziel-esque sometimes when he tries to run out of the pocket and throw a nice little ball." More on ODU's starting QB today: pilotonline.com/2024/09/09/old…

I think Warren Harding gave radio addresses in the 1920s with better audio than this ESPN+ broadcast. #Hokies

Yikes

Q4 3:58 | Hampton 30, Norfolk State 7 Norfolk State has to punt again. Hampton will take over at its own 43.

FINAL | Hampton 37, Norfolk State 7 Hampton was dominant all afternoon and it results in a big rivalry win. The Pirates improve to 2-1 and Norfolk State will fall to 1-3.

Virginia Tech 14, Old Dominion 7, 13:13, 2nd. Freshman QB Quinn Henicle went 65 yards around the right side for ODU.

Battle of the Bay was a one-sided affair today.

ODU punted eight times, committed seven penalties for 74 yards, mustered just 50 passing yards from two backup quarterbacks and converted 1 of 12 on third down vs. the #Hokies. The ugly truth (and a full story) from David Hall. 👇 pilotonline.com/2024/09/14/vir…

🏈🎤 Luke Bryan concert prompts Chesapeake to move high school football games to Thursday night, writes Jami Frankenberry. pilotonline.com/2024/09/16/luk…

I asked Hampton interim head coach Trent Boykin why he opts for a button down, necktie and vest on the sideline. The answer has a little to do with Jim Tressel, the Dallas Cowboys and old school football coaches. For The Virginian-Pilot/VirginianPilotSports: pilotonline.com/2024/09/17/dre…
