Virginia Tech fans who made the trip to Tallahassee, Florida, for the Hokies’ season opener against No. 19 Florida State on Monday seem to be happy with that decision — and they let the rest of the country know it.

No. 19 Virginia Tech dominated the Seminoles 24-3 on Monday night, spoiling Florida State coach Willie Taggart’s debut.

The Hokies took control of the game from the start, mounting a 75-yard touchdown drive on the opening series, and cruised to a 17-3 halftime lead.

HA HA!!! Troll Level 10. I was watching the game and some clueless FSU cheerleaders actually cheered when the Hokies scored.

Another ill-informed member of the media. It is NOT the Tomahawk Chomp, it is the Tomahawk Chop. The University of Florida has the Gator Chomp.

What a difference one day makes in football. We Clemson fans were concerned about the hype piled on Miami, Louisville, and FSU coming into last week. All 3 fizzled. VT wasn’t even on our radar anymore than normal. They are now.

Hey, on any given Sunday. LOL! I spent many happy hours at that stadium sipping from a flask and chopping. 😁

It looks like it has been corrected. The article now says Chop but the URL still has chomp.

Not sure “embrace” is the right word.

(Saw the game. The Noles got crushed)

The Tomahawk Chop the Noles stole from the Atlanta Braves?

When the Noles do the Chop it just sounds like a bunch of off-key drunks.

They didn’t “embrace” it. They mocked the hell out of fsu as they were dishing out an azz beating to them.

It was glorious.
