Boise State Vs. Virginia Tech: Tyrod Taylor Is Your Lottery Ticket

Tyrod Taylor’s long pass set up a Virginia Tech score to make it 17-7, proving that Tyrod Taylor remains the perfect lottery ticket for Virginia Tech’s otherwise stodgy offensive investment strategy. He may not hit every time, and you’re certainly not relying on him for your retirement, but when he comes through he’s a nice bonus to your stingy, conservative three-yards-at-a-blast run game.

Virginia Tech then capitalized on this momentum by kicking the ball out of bounds, giving Boise the ball at the 40 yard line, and surrendering a long field goal. They either have an ironic sense of football humor that qualifies as downright hipsterish, or they want to lose this football game and do so with some smoke coming off the damn thing.
