We are waiting for the show to start, looking at the folks filtering in to the Press Box. Some recognize us, nod, and go find their places. Some nod pleasantries and merely beg pardon for needing to get by. The Hokie PR guys are filtering around and talking with various other media types. There are several meetings going on behind the observation desks where teams of folks are sorting out assignments and grabbing a seat to get off of their feet since the walk from the hotels or parking deck is pretty long.
The one really loud thing happening is that the wind picked up around 1:00 and is blowing from the Virginia Tech to the Arkansas Endzones.
