Virginia Tech defensive lineman Vinny Mihota will miss the Belk Bowl December 29 against Arkansas according to various reports out of Charlotte.
As you can see, running back Shai McKenzie also showed up to bowl events with an injury which adds another layer to his ongoing saga.
Mihota started all 13 games for the Hokies this season finishing seventh on the team in total tackles with 43. He posted seven tackles for loss and two sacks in addition to blocking a kick for the second consecutive season.
The redshirt sophomore has proven to be an important part of a strong defensive line unit for the Hokies and Mihota has shown the ability to play both defensive end and tackle at various times during his career when Tech has been forced to scramble with injuries.
