Tonight is a big game for more than one reason. 1) It is the battle of the Tech's who will have bragging rights to say they are the best Tech in the ACC. 2) It is a top 21 showdown as VT is #10 and GT is #21. 3) This is by far the most important one: Whoever wins this game will more than likely win the Coastal Division and land itsself in the ACC CHampionship game on Dec 3.
The Matchup: This matchup is very intersting as Virginia Tech has the 2nd leading rusher in the nation David Wilson, but Tech with the dynamic triple option offense is raned # 2 in rushing offense averging 328 yards a game. A few more tidbits about the game the Hokie offense comes in ranked 39th in the nation with 427.7 yars a game while the jacket offense comes in 474.6 16th in the nation. Another intersting fact is in all 7 of GT's win's they have scored at least 21 points, so the Jacket O is a high octane point producing machine when it gets going. This Hokie D might have something to say about this as they have been stingy all year only allowing 86.3 yars on the ground and giving up only 15.4 points a game. Something will have to give either the Hokie D or the Tech Offense. I think this will be a thriller in what looks to be a very cool night in Atlanta.
