Virginia Tech Hokies

Virginia Tech HokiesVirginia Tech Hokies, Virginia Tech wanted to prove itself worthy of a BCS bid. The Hokies blew it in the Sugar Bowl. After squandering numerous chances to race to a big lead in the first half, No. 17 Virginia Tech needed a gutsy comeback just to force overtime. Then, one more miscue ? third-string placekicker Justin Myer, who made four clutch field goals in regulation, finally missed on his fifth attempt, and Brendan Gibbons knocked through a 37-yarder that gave No. 13 Michigan a 23-20 victory Tuesday night.

The Hokies (11-3) outgained the Wolverines 377-184 in total yards, making quarterback Denard Robinson look downright ordinary. But the most disputed team to land a BCS invitation simply made too many mistakes to pull it out.

While Michigan leaped around and even managed to dump a bucket of ice on first-year coach Brady Hoke, Virginia Tech’s players collapsed on the field in anguish.

They had a chance to prove all the skeptics wrong.

They let it slip away.

Myer made the last of his field goals from 25 yards with 2 seconds left in regulation, sending the game to overtime tied at 20. It was quite a performance by a kicker who fell into the job when the top two specialists got in trouble off the field ? one left at home, the other sent home on a bus.

Virginia Tech got the ball first in overtime and appeared to score a touchdown when Danny Coale made a brilliant, one-handed catch as he was tumbling out of bounds. But the replay showed he landed on the line as he pulled the ball in ? just a split-second before he dragged his right foot inbounds.

On came Myer, whose 37-yard attempt faded wide right.

Michigan (11-2) failed to pick up a first down. It didn’t matter. The Wolverines were already in range for the winning kick.

But don’t blame Myer for this one. “He did a heck of a job,” coach Frank Beamer said of his fill-in kicker.

There were more than enough mistakes to go around, including all sorts of botched plays by Virginia Tech’s special teams. The Hokies ran into Michigan’s punter. They fumbled a kickoff return. They turned an ugly pass into a first-down completion after Michigan messed up a field-goal try. And, finally, a fake punt that failed miserably in the fourth quarter, setting up Gibbons for a 39-yard field goal that put the Wolverines ahead 20-17 with 4 minutes remaining.

Virginia Tech, to its credit, drove 83 yards for the tying field goal.

In the end, it was just another loss in a major bowl for the Hokies, who dropped to 2-6 on college football’s biggest stages. This one stings a little worse, since there was plenty of criticism when Virginia Tech was invited to the Big Easy over two higher-ranked teams, Boise State and Kansas State.

“I’m about half-sick right now,” Beamer said. “Too many mistakes.”

Robinson, the Wolverines’ thrilling quarterback, didn’t do much. He was sacked three times and finished with 13 yards rushing on 13 carries. He completed just 9 of 21 passes for 117 yards, but two of them were touchdowns to the game’s MVP, Junior Hemingway, who made a pair of acrobatic catches.

Logan Thomas passed for 214 yards, David Wilson rushed for 82, and the Hokies dominated the stat sheet. But the only numbers that mattered were in Michigan’s favor.

Virginia Tech jumped ahead 6-0 but it should’ve been a much bigger lead. On the opening possession, the Hokies marched right down the field to set up first down at the Michigan 4. Then, the first of the major blunders. Wilson got hemmed up in the backfield, kept going backward trying to find some daylight and finally was slung down for a staggering 22-yard loss. Myer’s 37-yard field goal was the consolation.

Virginia Tech Football, Logan Thomas was bigger than most of the guys trying to tackle him. Georgia Tech simply couldn’t bring down Virginia Tech’s towering quarterback, even resorting to throwing a punch.
When Thomas was done, Virginia Tech had a clear path to the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game.

The 6-foot-6, 254-pound sophomore accounted for five touchdowns, while David Wilson rushed for a career-best 175 yards as the No. 9 Hokies eliminated 19th-ranked Georgia Tech from the ACC title race with a 37-26 victory Thursday night.

“When you get to November, you want to be playing for something,” said Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer. “You want to be playing for championships. And these guys have put us in that position.”

Thomas threw three touchdown passes and ran for two more scores. Wilson had his seventh straight 100-yard game, already the longest streak of Beamer’s quarter-century as coach.

The teams went back and forth through the second and third quarters, scoring on eight of nine possessions in one stretch. But Virginia Tech (9-1, 5-1 ACC) took advantage of a huge personal foul on Jeremiah Attaochu and a fourth-down gamble by Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson that didn’t pay off.

The Yellow Jackets (7-3, 4-3) were eliminated from the Coastal Division race, while Virginia Tech can assure its fifth division title in seven years by winning the next two games.

Georgia Tech quarterback Tevin Washington ran for three touchdowns, but the Hokies took the lead for good on Thomas’ 12-yard run in the final minute of the third quarter. The play was typical for the big QB, who simply lowered his head and bulled his way to the end zone. The Yellow Jackets just couldn’t bring him down.

“He’s a load,” Beamer said.

Added Thomas, “We just keep battling and battling.”

That touchdown was set up by Attaochu’s huge blunder, which extended a possession that seemed to be over deep in Virginia Tech territory. On third-and-19 from his own 17, Thomas was flushed out of the pocket and corralled by several Georgia Tech defenders. But he wouldn’t go down and, apparently out of frustration, Attaochu threw a punch into the side of the quarterback’s helmet.

“I just had an overdose of adrenalin,” said Attaochu, insisting he was actually trying to cause a fumble though he didn’t come close to the ball. “When I made contact with him, I was mad he wouldn’t go down.”

Instead of a knockout, he drew a personal foul gave Virginia Tech a first down — and very well could lead to a suspension for Attaochu after the ACC reviews the play. More important on this night, Wilson got loose for a 44-yard run and Thomas scored on a third-and-1 play that was designed to merely pick up the first down. He took it all the way to the end zone, giving the Hokies a 27-26 lead after a two-point pass was incomplete.

Then, it was Johnson who left himself open to second guessing when he decided to go for it on fourth-and-1 at his own 31 early in the fourth. Washington tried to get it on a keeper, but he was stopped about a foot short.

“I felt like we needed to score,” Johnson said. “I thought we could make a yard and we didn’t.”

For there, Virginia Tech moved in for the kill. The Hokies converted their own fourth-and-1, but that was an easier to call with make with Thomas to carry it. He bulled his way for a 5-yard gain, then hooked up with Chris Drager for his first career touchdown, a 14-yard pass on third down that made it 34-26.

“We’ve faced some good ones,” said Georgia Tech linebacker Julian Burnett, who gave away 8 inches and 32 pounds to the opposing quarterback. “Probably not as big and strong as that guy.”

Cody Journell sealed the victory, knocking through a 23-yard field goal with 3:02 remaining.

“When you get two good football teams together, you’re going to have some momentum swings like that,” Beamer said. “I’m glad we got the last one.”

After a wild final minute to the second quarter, in which the teams combined for three scores that left Virginia Tech with a 21-13 lead, the Yellow Jackets took the second-half kickoff and drove it right down the field.

Washington broke off a 35-yard run and also benefited from a personal foul penalty on Jack Tyler, who whacked Embry Peeples as he was running out of bounds, sending him flying toward the Yellow Jackets bench while yellow flags flew in from all directions. Washington finished it off with a 1-yard touchdown run, but he was stuffed on a 2-point conversion to leave Georgia Tech trailing 21-19.

No one, it seemed, could stop anyone at that point, but Virginia Tech stopped itself. With the Hokies driving for another score, Wilson had the ball stripped away by Burnett and Isaiah Johnson recovered at the 16 for the Yellow Jackets.

Back came Georgia Tech, reclaiming the lead with lightning-quick 84-yard drive that took only seven plays. Peeples went down the sideline for a 39-yard run and Washington nearly took it in with a 29-yard gain, before finishing it off with his third TD of the night on a 1-yard dive.

That would be the last hurrah for the Yellow Jackets, who were coming off an upset of then-unbeaten Clemson that sent fans storming the field at Bobby Dodd Stadium. This time, they filed out quietly on a cold night, while Virginia Tech and its contingent of fans celebrated the Hokies extending their ACC-record road winning streak to 12 in a row — currently the nation’s longest run of success away from home.

The winner of this game has gone on to take every Coastal Division title, and Virginia Tech controls the race now. Rival Virginia, with two ACC losses, is the only team that still has a chance to catch the Hokies.

“We worked all season to work our way back in the ACC,” Washington said. “It’s just a letdown. But there’s nothing we can do now but go out and try to win the next two and try to put ourselves in position to just have a decent record.”

Virginia Tech was up 14-7 before a back-and-forth finish to the half.

The Huskers got the tape, attended meetings pre-game and dressed to go on the field.

“We did not know the final of the Rose Bowl (No. 2 Ohio State and Stanford), but Fox (Bryant) kept checking the score for us because Monte Kiffin wanted to know,” said linebacker Jerry Murtaugh, a co-captain.
