Following Virginia Tech's 30-23 loss to Wake Forest on Saturday at Lane Stadium, it felt like a huge missed opportunity for the Hokies. Winners of two straight going into the game, they were a favorite to win a third straight, but mistakes were costly.
They were good on offense, not great, but they did enough to win the game, putting up 23 points. Yes, it was frustrating with a first-and-goal inside the Demon Deacons' 5-yard line in the third quarter following an interception, but after three failed runs and a personal foul penalty, they had to settle for a John Love field goal.
