Virginia Tech got another ACC victory yesterday when they were able to hold down Georgia Tech's offense for a 21-6 victory. It was not a banner day for the Hokies offense, but quarterback Kyron Drones was able to do just enough by throwing for a touchdown, rushing for a touchdown, and catching a touchdown. The offense had a large number of three and outs, but they had enough big plays and better red zone execution than Georgia Tech.
