Over the past quarter-century, the Hokies have dominated the conference scene, claiming a whopping eleven titles under the masterful leadership of Coach Frank Beamer. From 1987 to 2015, Beamer orchestrated a football revolution, propelling the team to unprecedented heights.
The excitement reached its zenith in 2000 when the Hokies, led by the electrifying young quarterback Michael Vick, stormed into the National Championship Game. Picture this: the adrenaline-pumping clash against the formidable Florida State Seminoles had fans on the edge of their seats. In a nail-biting showdown, Virginia Tech, defying all odds, held the lead at the end of the third quarter, sending shockwaves through the nation.
Although the coveted national title slipped through their fingers, the heroic efforts of Beamer and the unforgettable moments on that grand stage are etched in football history. This book chronicles that epic journey, delving into the heart-stopping battles, including the iconic 2000 National Championship Game, as well as a captivating exploration of the team’s triumphs and trials from 1923 onwards.
