Virginia Tech 31, Duke 14

The Hokies dispatch the No. 22 Blue Devils.

[Virginia Tech Athletics]

The Hokies responded.

Old Dominion debacle + Josh Jackson injury + Trevon Hill dismissal + Young squad + Road game against a ranked divisional opponent; the Virginia Tech football season had every reason to go off the rails. But it didn't. It's not a win for the ages, but it wasn't a loss to kill the 2018 campaign.

That's the column.
