This game certainly was an odd one. Expecting a blowout, the VT fans and media got one, by the same 45-0 score as
last week's Duke game. But while the feedback from the Duke game was almost overwhelmingly positive, and the Hokies were
lauded as focused and powerful in that game, the comments after this game were more scattered. We'll take a look at
where the Hokies did well, where they didn't do their best, and what it all means.

45-0 is 45-0, right? What's the difference between this hammer job and the one at Duke? Was it the performance of the
Tech defense? After all, they only gave up 35 yards to Duke, but Ohio, known for having a limp offense, gained 189
yards. That's a lot more, if you're scoring at home.
