OMG! Every time Verne says this I hate him just a little more. Is it that hard to pronounce LSU.
Maybe if I'd been downing MD 20/20 since 10 am, I'd have a little trouble too.

They aren't consistent with it.

Never use VPI&SU, VPI and SU, VA Tech, VPI, Va. Tech, or Virginia Tech University in printed matter. LINK

Got it. NEVER use "Va. Tech"
quote:

“VT” and “Va. Tech” are acceptable only in limited, informal situations, such as a news headline where space is tight.

Oh. So "never" means "rarely".
