How sweet it is!
ACC Champion Hokies win first major Bowl Game since 1995.
For Virginia Tech, there was no mystery. The Hokies came into the Orange Bowl convinced that if the defense delivered, everything else would fall into place. Oh, how right they were. Darren Evans had 28 carries for 153 yards and a touchdown, Virginia Tech's defense came up with four interceptions and the 21st-ranked Hokies beat the 12th-ranked Bearcats 20-7 on Thursday night to join Southern California and Texas as the only schools to win 10 games in each of the past five seasons.
To commemorate the Orange Bowl victory, Wilson Sporting Goods, the official supplier to the NCAA, is producing a licensed authentic and official NCAA Signature Series Football exclusive for USA Sports Marketing. The football has three white panels and the Wilson Leather Logo panel as shown above. Two of the white panels will contain the licensed and approved graphics as shown.
Each football is embossed with the official Orange Bowl 75th Anniversary Logo, final score, date and location of the game....all complimenting the logo of the 2009 Orange Bowl Champion Virginia Tech Hokies. The football will also contain the season schedule and scores of each of the season games. In addition, the "Limited Edition of 1,000" will be embossed on the front of the football and will be accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
