Virginia Tech takes commanding lead over Georgia Tech with 90-yard punt return TD

Virginia Tech fell behind 10-0 to Georgia Tech on Saturday afternoon, but the Hokies quickly got back on track.

Virginia Tech scored 20 unanswered points to end the firs the half. That scoring run was punctuated by a 90-yard punt return touchdown from Tucker Holloway.

He had no issues weaving his way through Georgia Tech’s punt return defense all the way to the end zone. Here’s the score:

That touchdown came with less than a minute remaining in the first half. It gave Virginia Tech a 20-10 lead to take into the break in Blacksburg.

Holloway is close to breaking Virginia Tech’s single-game record for punt return yards in an outing. He needs just 25 yards in the second half to pass Antonio Freeman for the program record.

Virginia Tech is still battling for possible bowl eligibility. However, the Hokies would need to win-out in order to reach the postseason. They still have games remaining vs. Duke, Liberty and Virginia.
