with six seconds left in the half and keyed a 17-point third
quarter by connecting on a 40-yard bomb to Jermaine Holmes. 


The Hokies, who improved to 5-2 overall and 3-0 in the 
conference, scored on three of their first four possessions 
of the second half. 


Virginia Tech added a pair of defensive touchdowns scores in the
fourth quarter to seal the victory.  Defensive end Hank Coleman
