In this story:

The Virginia Tech Hokies are hungry, seeking a win against Marshall to start the year with a 1-1 record. The Hokies suffered a tough loss at Vanderbilt in week one, but the team has taken it well, and are ready to face off against another out-of-conference opponent. Virginia Tech will likely be without the services of Nick Gallo, Jalen Stroman, and Will Johnson due to injury, but all signs are pointing to Kyron Drones being fully healthy for the game against the Herd.

Virginia Tech has struggled against the Herd in the past, dropping last year’s game at Marshall 24-17. Virginia Tech has the overall lead for the series however, holding an 11-3 lead over Marshall. Since 1950, the Hokies hold an even more impressive 9-1 lead over the series. Virginia Tech is the clear favorite in this game, and is hoping to put this game away, instead of it ending like the Hokie’s last game against Vanderbilt—or the last game against Marshall. The Thundering Herd won’t go down without a fight, but the Hokies are looking to take care of business in Blacksburg.

Virginia Tech will face off against their first group-of-five opponent—the Marshall Thundering Herd on Saturday, September 7th at 4:30 PM ET. This game marks the Hokie’s first game at home this season.
