Miami's defense continues to impress in 26-7 win over ACC foe Virginia Tech
The Miami Hurricanes took care of business on Saturday, overcoming an early deficit to rival Virginia Tech to beat the Hokies 26-7 thanks to their defense who shut out Virginia Tech's offense for three quarters and scored Miami's first touchdown.

The Hokies scored on a 70-yard touch pass to the speedy Chanz Wiggins to jump out to an early 7-0 lead but Jason Spriggs threw a pick six to Damari Brown in the second quarter that erased their lead.

Miami's offense eventually got it going with both quarterbacks throwing for a touchdown. Emory Williams finished the game 22 of 34 for 237 yards and a touchdown in perhaps his best and most efficient outing of the season. True freshman Keke Hagg also threw a touchdown and went 8 of 14 for 86 yards.

Too easy and you didn’t throw an INT.

actually beat them even worse with a shutout the first time so replayed it a few days later after some madden with some tweaks and still got the blowout

VaTech is just ass, not sure what happened to them. they were decent last two years rating wise
