CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – Virginia Tech will be playing its second true road game this season when it faces Boston College on Saturday evening at Alumni Stadium.

The Hokies, who fell to 4-1 overall after Saturday’s loss to Clemson and to No. 16 in the polls, handled their first road test with ease, cruising past East Carolina, and they whipped BC last season at Lane for their seventh win in the past nine games between the longtime rivals. But Tech figures to face a much stiffer test against BC, which moved to 2-3 win a win last Saturday over Central Michigan.
