Takeaways from Virginia Tech's defeat in Atlanta on Saturday

BLACKSBURG – The Virginia Tech football team took to the practice field Sunday evening, and the 28-22 loss to Georgia Tech down in Atlanta on Saturday afternoon still stung – pun fully intended, but no less true.

The loss marked the Hokies’ second straight, leaving them at 7-3 overall and 3-3 in the ACC. They also fell out of the polls for the first time this season.

There was a lot to dissect in the aftermath of the six-point defeat to the Yellow Jackets. The Hokies fell behind early again, fought back to take the lead, gave up too many big plays and still had a chance to win in the final minutes.
