GAME SUMMARY
Quarterback Bart Weiss got Air Force’s
wishbone attack going in the second half and
led the Falcons to a 23-7 victory over Virginia
Tech at Independence Stadium. Tech took a 7-3
lead in the first quarter on a 10-play, 72-yard
drive that ended with a 3-yard touchdown run
by Maurice Williams, but the game changed
midway through the second quarter when the
Falcons forced and recovered a fumble at the
Tech 3. Halfback Jody Simmons took a pitchout
to the left and put Air Force ahead for good.
The turnover was one of four for the Hokies, as
Air Force used its ground attack to control the
clock. The Falcons rushed for 221 yards.

GAME SUMMARY
Virginia Tech earned its first bowl victory in
dramatic fashion when Chris Kinzer hit a 40-yard
field goal as time expired to give the Hokies a
25-24 comeback win over North Carolina State
at Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium. The Hokies
rallied from a 21-10 deficit, converting two NC
State second-half turnovers into touchdowns
to take a 22-21 lead. The Wolfpack regained
the lead on a field goal by Mike Cofer with 7:12
remaining, but the Hokies drove to the NC State
23 in the final two minutes to set up Kinzer’s
game winner.
