Press Conference: Frank Beamer

Chris Graham

Virginia Tech football coach Frank Beamer talks with the news media. Virginia Tech (8-2, 6-0 ACC) travels to Miami (7-3, 5-2 ACC) on Saturday.

Opening Statement

I can tell you it’s not getting any easier. You turn on that tape of Miami and you see a really good football team, a team that can strike several ways, a team that’s playing great defense. I think they’re number two in the conference in total defense, 19th in the country. They lead the conference in pass defense efficiency. Just overall has got some great speed on offense, offensive line led by Franklin in there, but I think they’re really good up front and then they’ve got a couple of defensive lineman that are special too, and linebackers, I mean this is a good football team.
