BLACKSBURG, Va. — Bhayshul Tuten made history for Virginia Tech by rushing for an impressive 266 yards, setting a new school record, and contributing to four touchdowns in a dominant 42-21 win over Boston College on Thursday night.

Kyron Drones also shone in the spotlight, adding two rushing touchdowns along with a touchdown pass for the Hokies (4-3, 2-1 in the Atlantic Coast Conference). Virginia Tech jumped out to an early lead, scoring touchdowns on their first three offensive drives, marking their second straight victory.

On the other hand, Boston College (4-3, 1-2 in the ACC) struggled in the first half, falling behind 28-0. However, the Eagles managed to claw back in the third quarter, as Kye Robichaux punched in a 5-yard touchdown run, bringing the score to 28-21 with just under three minutes left in the third. They seemed poised for a potential comeback early in the fourth quarter but failed to convert on a critical fourth-and-1 at midfield. Virginia Tech seized the opportunity from that point, with Tuten scoring again on a 6-yard rush and widening the gap to 35-21 with 11:02 left to play.

Tuten displayed remarkable agility and speed, carrying the ball 18 times and scoring on dazzling runs of 83 and 61 yards, the latter of which effectively concluded the game. He also caught a 20-yard touchdown pass from Drones.

Drones had an effective outing, scoring on runs of 11 and 1 yard during the early drives. He completed 14 of 18 passes for 164 yards while also rushing for 40 yards, as the Hokies racked up a season-high total of 533 yards in offense.

For Boston College, Thomas Castellanos was the standout performer, throwing for 205 yards and two touchdowns, but their total offensive output fell short at 372 yards.
