For the first time in school history, the Virginia Tech Hokies head to South Bend on Saturday to take on the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. It’s been a disappointing season, to say the least, for the Irish. At 4-6, the Hokies and a hot USC team stand in the way of the Golden-Domers becoming bowl eligible.
The Hokies, meanwhile, hope to bounce back from a frustrating home loss to Georgia Tech. If the Hokies had defeated the Yellow Jackets, they would’ve clinched the ACC’s Coastal Division. That will have to wait another week, as Tech’s focus is clearly on the Fighting Irish this weekend.
