Virginia Tech Hosts Wake Forest in ACC Showdown After Upset Win
Virginia Tech, under interim head coach Philip Montgomery, is set to host Wake Forest this Saturday in Blacksburg, Virginia. The Hokies are riding high after a significant upset against NC State, while the Demon Deacons are looking to bounce back from a heartbreaking loss to Georgia Tech.
Last week, Virginia Tech's Terion Stewart ran for a career-best 174 yards on 15 carries against NC State. The Hokies went on to win 23-21, a victory that Montgomery, who took over from Brent Pry, has described as significant. Montgomery's energetic leadership, showcased in a viral locker room dance, has boosted team morale.
Wake Forest, meanwhile, is 2-2 and 0-2 in conference play after a deflating 30-29 overtime loss to then-No. 16 Georgia Tech. Coach Jake Dickert has noticed a surge in Virginia Tech's energy since Montgomery's promotion. Despite the setback, Wake Forest remains confident as they prepare to face the Hokies on the road for the first time this season.
Saturday's game between Virginia Tech (2-3, 1-0 ACC) and Wake Forest (2-2, 0-2) promises to be an exciting ACC matchup. The Hokies will look to build on their recent success, while the Demon Deacons aim to rebound and secure their first conference win. Kickoff is scheduled for November 9, 2024, in Blacksburg, Virginia.
