Kyron Drones accounted for five touchdowns against Pittsburgh, but Virginia Tech will face a much stiffer test Saturday at No. 5 Florida State.
Quarterback Kyron Drones accounted for five touchdowns this past week for Virginia Tech, which faces No. 5 Florida State on Saturday. Early in the third quarter of this past weekend’s game against Pittsburgh, Virginia Tech quarterback Kyron Drones tucked the ball and ran for a touchdown on third and goal from the 10-yard line. The sequence included the redshirt sophomore dragging several defenders to the end zone before spiking the ball and igniting a jubilant celebration.
Drones threw three touchdown passes and ran for two more scores to energize a fan base that had been growing increasingly disgruntled with the play of starting quarterback Grant Wells, who won the job toward the end of fall camp but has labored through injury and inconsistency.The redshirt senior has missed the past three games with a sore ankle suffered Sept. 9 in a loss to Purdue.
The transfer from North Carolina A&T contributed significantly to the Hokies amassing 427 yards of total offense and 25 first downs, both season highs, allowing Virginia Tech to overcome 10 penalties for 91 yards. The Hokies’ previous high in total yards this year was 368 in a season-opening 36-17 win against Old Dominion.
