As
I noted in my pre-game comments, the Hokies hadn't lost three in a row since
2003, so had they dropped this one, it would have been ominous and unpleasant,
to say the least. Thankfully, the guys got the ship turned in the right
direction, as we saw the return of two Virginia Tech traditional staples: the
game-changing big play and the avalanche of points.
As unpredictable as these Hokies are so far this year, this one actually did
go like I pictured. ECU had some offensive success (361 yards, 27 points), and
for a while, this game was a shootout, but eventually the Hokies got their feet
under them, made some plays, and pulled away.
