Episode Details

Virginia Military Institute’s triple-option offense, brought over by former Navy coach Ashley Ingram, is still finding its footing — and it’s not pretty. After a brutal 11-yard passing performance against Idaho State, VMI leaned on the ground game, rushing 52 times for 229 yards, but still fell 38-10. Ingram’s rebuilding project, starting from last year’s 1-11 record, is showing grit — he calls this “the first step.” This Saturday, they face Virginia Tech on ACC Network at 7:30 PM ET. Look for redshirt freshman QB Chandler Wilson, who led the team in rushing with 62 yards and scored the only TD on a 31-yard run off the bench. Also watch true freshman Trevin Simon (46-yard TD burst) and workhorse Leo Boehling (17 carries, 2+ yards per carry). With Ethan Grunkemeyer starting for Virginia Tech, this is a pivotal test for VMI’s new identity.
