TyJuan Garbutt was all over the field for Virginia Tech. (Ivan Morozov)<\/p>\n

The first home game of the Brent Pry era saw Virginia Tech beat Boston College 27-10 in a game the Hokies basically controlled from start to finish. It wasn’t a dominant offensive performance by any means, but Tech fans were treated to an old-school defensive display, led by senior defensive end TyJuan Garbutt.<\/p>\n

show I don’t know about you, but I think a weight has been lifted off the collective shoulders of Virginia Tech fans, players, coaches and Brent Pry. Everyone wanted to get the first win out of the way as soon as possible, especially after last week’s disappointment in Norfolk. It looked like a 50-50 game going in, and nobody wanted to be 0-2.

Past experiences show us that we can still win football games this way with proper game management and if we protect the football. The Hokies did both of those things Saturday and won.<\/p>\n
