If you want to share a beer with a Virginia Tech football player on South Beach, do it before midnight. Virginia Tech head coach Frank Beamer has set the Hokies curfew for their 6 day stay for midnight. Apparently in years past it was set at 2AM. VT has lost 4 of their last 5 bowl games including a 24-21 upset loss to Kansas in last years Orange Bowl. Here is a comment taken from the Roanoke Times on an article about the curfew:"We're not going to be there to get drunk and party, we're going to win the Orange Bowl".

Other changes by the Hokies in an attempt to reverse their loosing bowl trend include moving from the team hotel the night before the game and giving the players scouting reports on the opponent earlier that in past years. This according to an article in the Roanoke Times.
No word yet on UC's pre-game strategy, or curfew times.
