Hokies-'Hoos...

And the senior class of 2007 goes out a perfect 4 of 4 against the 'Hoos. Both QBs make it through the entire game and demonstrate the diverse skills that each brings to the offense. Taylor provided the dual threat, particularly inside the red zone. Glennon continued to take advantage of the excellent play of the offensive line, making outstanding throws, particularly on the late strike to Eddie Royal to end the first half. Branden Ore showed the jump cuts and acceleration that were hallmarks of his outstanding 2006 season. The defense played well enough, though they did struggle to keep the 'Hoos from scoring touchdowns in the red zone. Jud Dunlevy continues to have a nice season and reserve safety Davon Morgan blocked a punt, ensuring contributions from every unit.

The Hokies now get another crack at BC, looking vastly improved from the version that coughed up a late lead in Lane. With a win, the Hokies get to go to a BCS bowl and look back at what might have been had they not suffered that heartbreaker against BC.
