Virginia Tech offense does just enough to beat LSU.(Knight Ridder Newspapers)
BLACKSBURG, Va. _ Most everything seemed to go Virginia Tech's way Sunday in its Top 25 matchup with Louisiana State.
From a first-quarter score that was called back and seven dropped passes by the Tigers, to a blocked punt by Virginia Tech for a safety even though it wasn't trying to block it.
The No. 16 Hokies, though not dominant offensively, dominated the scoreboard and beat No. 14 LSU, 26-8, in front of 65,049 fans, the largest crowd to see a football game in Virginia.
On a day when Virginia Tech retired Michael Vick's jersey and dedicated the 11,000-seat addition in the north end zone, it was no wonder the Hokies were only 66 fans short of a sellout in their matchup with last year's SEC champion.
"I think we've come out and played hard for two weeks straight," Hokies coach Frank Beamer said. "I just told our football team, though, they have to remember that this is just two weeks. This is a long season, the longest one we have ever had."
