Brothers agree it's not the Shoop Bowl

Posted Oct 27, 2010
When the Shoops were hired for their respective jobs in the same week in February 2007, they saw the game on the 2010 schedule and joked about the odds they'd face each other. Now that it's about to happen, they're trying hard not to get caught up in Shoop vs. Shoop, even if everybody won't let them. "I think what you try to do is detach from this," John Shoop said by phone. (Richmond Times-Dispatch)
