GAME SUMMARY
The Hokies dominated the final 30 minutes by
using Ryan Williams’ rushing and yet another
powerful second-half defensive performance
to roll past Tennessee 37-14 at the Georgia
Dome. Tech’s defense did not allow a point in
the second half for the fifth straight game and
allowed just 112 yards of offense in the final 30
minutes – 43 of that coming in Vols’ final drive
with the outcome well in hand. The defense also
recorded six sacks. Williams rushed for 117
yards and two touchdowns, breaking Tech’s
single-season rushing record of 1,647 yards set
by former tailback Kevin Jones in 2003. Williams
finished the season with 1,655 yards.
