On Friday, former Virginia Tech wide receiver Eddie Royal joined ESPN's SportsCenter and explained how the Hokies could go to Atlanta and pull off an upset of 13th-ranked Georgia Tech at Bobby Dodd Stadium.

"It starts with stopping the run,'' said Royal. "Haynes King is one of the best in the country at running the ball. He's averaging 95 yards a game as a quarterback, rushing. It all starts and stops with him, and if you can stop the quarterback run, that's going to be huge. Georgia Tech loves to run the football, and Virginia Tech needs to have Haynes King as the number one goal and stopping this guy.
