Virginia Tech may have come up short in overtime against North Carolina, but Hokies players carried head coach Frank Beamer off the field like a winner following his final home game in Blacksburg.

At the beginning of the game, fans chanted "Thank you, Beamer" and gave him a standing ovation. Beamer's final regular season game will be on Nov. 28 at Virginia. If the Hokies win, they'll hit six wins and become bowl eligible, earning probably one more game to end Beamer's 25 year tenure at Virginia Tech.
