In this story:

Since their opening weekend loss to Vanderbilt, Virginia Tech has won their last two games and they have looked pretty strong in doing so. The running game had not been efficient in the first couple of games of the season for the Hokies, but they racked up 289 yards on the ground yesterday, averaging 5.7 yards per carry and three touchdowns. The passing game left a little to be desired with Kyron Drones finishing with 176 yards and one touchdown, but Jaylin Lane had a solid game, catching seven passes for 106 yards and one touchdown. The offense as a whole still feels like it has not played a complete game yet, but they are 2-1 heading into the matchup with Rutgers on Saturday.
