BLACKSBURG (WSLS 10) - Virginia Tech has released the schedule for the upcoming 2017 football season.
The Hokies kickoff the season on Saturday, September 2 against West Virginia, although the game will be played at FedEx Field. Tech has won seven of its past 10 meetings with the Mountaineers, including a 34-17 win in the most recent meeting in Morgantown, West Virginia in 2005.
