VT Over Wake Forest

Virginia Tech was heavily favored to win their matchup against the Demon Deacons in Blacksburg this past weekend.  There was no disappointment at all as the Hokies scored 49 points BEFORE HALFTIME.  Tyrod Taylor threw for an impressive 292 yards and 3 TDs while running for another TD.  The Hokies also had a strong day running the ball as David Wilson ran for 105 yards on 15 carries, and Darren Evans powered in 3 TDs of his own.  All around, the Hokies had a great day and there's no reason they can't do the same tomorrow against a sorry Duke team.  The only sore spot in this game would be the big plays that VT gave up to Wake Forest.  The Demon Deacons' freshman running back, Josh Harris, ran for 242 yards and a pair of TDs.  He kept making huge plays of 60-80 yards, which is very uncharacteristic for the Hokies defense to allow.  Anyhow, a win is a win, and this Saturday the Hokies should improve their record to 6-2, making them bowl eligible again.  These wins are also giving enormous amounts of confidence to the Hokies offense, which is running in fast forward and will need it when they close the season against Georgia Tech, Miami, and North Carolina.
