Here’s what Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer had to say about North Carolina, his team’s opponent this weekend.

“They’re fast,” he said. “We’ve had some success speeding it up. We try to set the tempo. Sometimes it’s not as fast as other times. I think we’ve got to think about that in this ball game.”

What are some of the biggest things you’ve seen on film from them and your anticipation of this game and what
they’re bringing forward?

“Well, I think playing two quarterbacks, and both of them are extremely capable, good results. I think like 64 percent passing,” Beamer said. “The running yards per game is good. I think they can put up a lot of points, averaging 41, if I’m not mistaken.

“And defensively, they’re extremely athletic, like all of us. They’ve had some big plays against them, and I think all of us are trying to cut down on the big plays. A punter that’s been there a few years, Hibbard, he’s a weapon for them. I think they’ve got a good football team.”
