Related Topics: Justin Fuente

Virginia Tech, under new head coach Justin Fuente, won ten games in 2016, surpassing most expectations. After a solid start against the FCS Liberty Flames, the Hokies stumbled at Bristol Motor Speedway and fell to the Tennessee Volunteers. Virginia Tech would rebound with dominating performances against Boston College, East Carolina and the then No. 17 ranked North Carolina Tarheels. Even with loses to Syracuse and Georgia Tech, the Hokies still found themselves in the ACC Championship game against the Clemson Tigers, and nearly upset the eventual 2017 College Football Playoff National Champions.
