After a four-in-a-row home game slate, where the Virginia Tech Hokies managed to lose three games, they start their first of many away games down in Atlanta Georgia against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. GT won the coin toss and deferred, kicking off to the Hokies who are wearing all white. Malachi Thomas rushed for six yards on the first two downs of the game before Burmeister threw behind his receiver on third-and-four. The Yellow Jackets found a first down with QB Jeff Simms at the helm, but the VT defense held. It didn’t take long for the Hokies to quickly find their way to third-and-long, but busted coverage allowed Burmeister to find a wide-open Tre Turner for a 69-yard catch-and-run touchdown.
