- Virginia Tech TE Luke Reynolds has 25 catches for 265 yards and four TDs through three 2026 games, including 12 for 107 and one TD at Maryland after eight for 108 and two TDs versus Old Dominion. This is early production, not a weather-dependent target plan against Boston College. - Virginia Tech has 14 sacks in three 2026 games. Aycen Stevens has 3.5; Cortez Harris, Mylachi Williams and Kaleb Spencer have three apiece, per the preview. This is current pressure production, not a promise of extra rushers or sacks against Boston College. - Virginia Tech backs Jeffrey Overton Jr. (35 carries, 200 yards, three TDs; seven catches, 95 yards, one TD) and Marcellous Hawkins Jr. (40 carries, 187 yards, four TDs) have both produced through three 2026 games. Hawkins led the team with 75 rushing yards at Maryland; no future touch split is confirmed.

- QB/LB: They have been playing better than expected, no doubt…but could definitely use more depth

- The 247Sports Virginia Tech review cites PFF pass-rush grades of 79.1 for Okunlola, 80.2 for Mylachi Williams and 81.0 for Cortez Harris through three 2026 games. It says Okunlola graded less favorably against the run and had only one coverage snap; these are reported grades, not a new edge rotation. - The article cites Virginia Tech linebacker Kaleb Spencer's 90.2 PFF coverage grade and Chambers' 91.1 run-defense grade, while noting Chambers at 55.2 in coverage. The split points to different early strengths, not a new assignment or a guaranteed Boston College matchup result. - The article cites Clarke at 56.1 in run defense and 70.4 in coverage, while Jaquez White is at 75.8 in run defense and 53.5 in coverage. These PFF figures describe different early strengths; the supplied text does not establish an assignment change or predict either player's next game.

- DL/LB: Run the ball, DL & LB’s dominate defensively, win convincingly, and stay healthy

- QB/LB: On Grunkemeyer: Howle and O'Brien do a good job of building the passing game, making sure we force the defense to defend the whole field.

- QB: I do wonder if part of the DT's thing is just their roles have changed.

- QB: He could have taken the QB run stat even further: "And that 76-yard run was in the fourth quarter when VT had their entire defensive unit of second- and third-string guys in."

- LB: The LB's were a huge question mark going into the season, and they've been a pleasant surprise so far, especially Kaleb Spencer, who is flying around the field.

- DB: Let's please not run with this as "it's moving to Blacksburg", but take a look at who liked my post about moving it for player safety on the first page

- OL: I saw him lined up on the right and just assumed he released under the linebackers, but he let the OL clear out and stayed about a yard behind the line of scrimmage.

- Defense: It obviously goes both ways.

- QB: Just rain usually favors the offense in the passing game (as long as the QB can deal with it) because receivers know where they are going (and coverage must react), but rain and wind...

- Pick/market: James Franklin doesn’t typically loose to inferior opponents .

- Pick/market: Virginia Tech (3-0) James Franklin has Virginia Tech off to a good start in his first year leading the Hokies.

- Pick/market: Virginia Tech's depth chart and rotation is an ever-changing puzzle to piece together.

- QB: It looks like our defense was kinda playing more of a containment attack on the quarterback to keep him from breaking loose

- DL: D-line has been a very pleasant surprise so far, Chaos is a big reason for that.

- Pick/market: Y'all linked are their PFF grades versus a 1-2 FCS school, not like they were playing Montana State, and they don't have a single OL-man who scored over 68........

- Pick/market: We were trying to run clock and were not taking chances in the second half.

- LB/DB: Some interesting rotational stuff from PFF’s early stats (not final so could change).

- LB: The really encouraging part of Grunkemeyer’s game is he sees this play as “Greene is going to be open on that crossing out at the 40 if I can fit it past the linebacker.”...

- Defense: Prys got some ***** to fix on defense.

- QB: It was mentioned earlier in the week how good MW was good at evading pressure and that was on full display tonight.

- Defense: I agree, Q has had two really bad coverage busts.

- DL: I love how people call us small like we don’t have a hulk on the line
