I went to Virginia Tech, so I'm not really qualified to edit this article, but this article is embarrassingly loaded. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.198.94.74 ( talk) 21:14, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Shouldn't this article make at least some kind of reference to the one and only time the Hokies played for a National Championship? Legis 08:16, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
Is West Virginia really a rival? We've had some pretty good games, but they're not even on the schedule anymore.
VT has the FOURTH longest bowl streak. As the article later lists THREE schools ahead.
There is a history of VT football between 1896 and the Beamer years - at least some of the page should be devoted to those 89 years. (Bruce Smith, Dave Strock, Carrol Dale, etc. etc. etc. - a lot of good history there.)

From the Big East Years section, first sentence: "The greatest season ever seen in Virginia Tech football history came in 1999.". I'm not even sure that's fixable with a citation. Should it be removed? Oneliketadow ( talk) 04:01, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
I'm putting this here for purposes of dispute resolution. As I told User:Δ: "I'm well-aware of the NFC guidelines regarding galleries, but they do say that instances should be judged on a case-by-case basis. Virginia Tech has worn several different uniforms over the past few years and they're all relevant to the article. Furthermore, I and other designers will be adding past uniforms as well. Unfortunately, to display the images on the page in any other way besides the gallery would be unsightly and cluttered. Using a gallery is the most succinct way to display the images." He disagrees with my reasoning and claims that I'm violating copyright. I'm doing everything correctly as per the NFC rules. -- Kevin W./ Talk• CFB uniforms/ Talk 21:54, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
Protecting the version without the disputed images to err on the side of caution. I'm not familiar enough with this particular aspect of our copyright rules to make a judgement as to whether or not the images violate the rule. Hopefully someone with a clearer understanding of the policy can make a judgement within the next 6 hours. OhNoitsJamie Talk 22:10, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
An unregistered editor is insisting that David Wilson be added to this article's list of first overall picks in the NFL draft. However, Andrew Luck was the first overall pick in 2012. If this section is intended to use some other criteria such as "First overall pick in the NFL Draft by a team" then it should be renamed or clarified in the article.

The "Future non-conference opponents" section is due for an update. As the 2018 season approaches, it is no longer necessary to include games in the 2017 season. Additionally, the games in 2020 and 2021, listed as "at Michigan" and "vs Michigan", respectively, are now against Middle Tennessee State University. Finally, a game "at Liberty" should be added to the empty spot in 2022. Other future games can be added as well.

change 2019 military bowl results to empty. This was a copy of 2018 military bowl, results should not be present yet. Jrweimar ( talk) 11:32, 1 December 2019 (UTC)
What was the common name of the football team in the 1950s and 1960s? A survey of Virgina newspapers during football season (sep-nov) shows that "virginia tech" became more common by 1965. From 1950-1964, the usage was pretty equal.
