Virginia Tech football: 5 takeaways from Hokies’ loss to West Virginia

The West Virginia Mountaineers took down the No. 15 Virginia Tech Hokies on Saturday in Morgantown. The Mountaineers jumped out to a 14-0 lead early, and it appeared we were well on the way to seeing a blowout, but slowly, Virginia Tech fought back.

Every time it seemed as if the Hokies were closing in, mistakes would haunt them. Down 24-7 at halftime, Virginia Tech’s defense tightened up after halftime and allowed just three points after the break.

Now, about those mistakes. Yes, some of those mistakes were on the players, but this entire Virginia Tech team was let down by head coach Justin Fuente and the offensive coaching staff on Saturday.
