The Virginia Tech Hokies showed up in a lightly populated Wallace Wade Stadium in Durham for the annual contest against the Duke Blue Devils, and no one was particularly worried about this one. As in most of Hokie Nation was resigned to the loss and were there for moral support and hope for the future.
Well in the first two series the Hokies looked like they were coming out aggressive on all squads. Tech won the toss and deferred. #25 Tucker Holloway dumped the returner on his 17 and then Duke went three and out with heavy defensive pressure and some good QB scramble coverage.
