Virginia Tech Hokies News

The Hokies try to rebound after a stunning home loss last Thursday to North Carolina on the road against East Carolina. The Pirates beat Va. Tech last season in Charlotte after blocking a late punt. The loss prompted Frank Beamer to reconsider Tyrod Taylor?s redshirt a year ago. This East Carolina team is not as good as last year?s, but is still a tough out under Skip Holtz. ECU has been very good at home this season out gaining their opponents by 85 yards per game. Their defense also plays... much better atmore>>

Virginia Tech isn?t used to losing streaks, unless we?re talking about bowl season, but they find themselves in the middle of one heading into Thursday night?s match-up against East Carolina.

"Another season lost."? That's what every Virginia Tech football fan has been saying since the Hokies went down to the 16.5-point underdog that was North Carolina last Thursday night.

GREENVILLE, N.C.- East Carolina safety Dekota Marshall left Thursday night's game against No. 22 Virginia Tech with a right leg injury.

The Hokies will have to have success outside of the tackles on offense and contain ECU's quarterback to win Thursday.

The Hokies take a two-game losing streak into Thursday's game at East Carolina.

EA Sports says East Carolina fails to take advantage of a struggling Virginia Tech squad.

Statistically, the Hokies' offense in 2009 has improved by leaps and bounds over 2008.

This last week has been a tough one for Hokienation as fans have gone from booking trips to Pasadena to planning their two-hour car ride down to Charlotte for the Meinikie Car Care Bowl.? Obviously, with four weeks left in this college football season, a lot can still happen (VT still has a shot at winning the ACC, can you believe that?).

GREENVILLE, N.C.-Under normal circumstances, playing Virginia Tech is usually difficult enough to concern Skip Holtz.
