Miami Hurricanes quarterback Carson Beck led his team to a 34-17 victory over Virginia Tech on Saturday, throwing four touchdown passes for 320 yards. This win is the Hurricanes' third consecutive game with a margin of at least 17 points, boosting their chances of making it to the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game. Beck's performance was impressive, with 27 successful passes out of 32 attempts, including a perfect 11-for-11 start. His touchdown passes to Elija Lofton and Mark Fletcher in the first half helped Miami take a 20-3 lead at halftime. Carter Davis added two field goals to further solidify the Hurricanes' lead. In the second half, Virginia Tech's Jeffrey Overton narrowed the gap with a 38-yard touchdown run, but Miami responded with a 16-yard touchdown pass from Beck to Girard Pringle Jr. Beck's final touchdown of the game came in the last minute, securing a 20-yard pass to Malachi Toney, who had a career-high in receptions and yards. The Hurricanes finished with a total of 418 yards, while Virginia Tech had 194 yards rushing against the ACC's top-ranked rushing defense. The Hokies, who have lost five of their last six games, will now gear up for the James Franklin era under their new coach, who was introduced this week. Miami will face Pittsburgh in their next match, while Virginia Tech will take on their rival Virginia. This development keeps the Hurricanes in the running for the College Football Playoff spot, while the Hokies are preparing to usher in a new era of football under Coach Franklin.
