The No. 13 ranked Virginia Tech Hokies sent their 16 seniors out on a positive note with a 37-7 win over ACC and in-state rival Virginia. The win was the 10th straight for the Hokies and seventh straight over the Cavaliers (4-8, 1-7).
The Hokies are in no way the same team the lost two straight games to start the season three months ago. Since then, the Hokies (10-2, 8-0) have won 10 straight games; became the first team to go undefeated in ACC play since FSU in 2000; and have won at least 10 games in each of the last seven seasons, the longest such streak in Division I-A football (Football Bowl Championship).
