Virginia Tech’s annual rivalry game with UVA will kick off at noon next Saturday, and the game will be televised by ESPN2.
UVA is 2-9 on the season with wins over Duke and Central Michigan. The Cavaliers have not won a game since October 1. They have not defeated the Hokies since 2003, and they have not won in Blacksburg since 1998.
The Hokies are 8-3 and coming off a huge 34-31 comeback victory at Notre Dame. Tech has a lot to play for because a win over their in-state rivals would clinch the Coastal Division title and create an ACC Championship Game matchup with the Clemson Tigers.
