COMMONWEALTH CUP • The winner of the annual gridiron clash between Virginia Tech and the University of Virginia earns more than bragging rights in the state. In recent years, the winning team has also taken home the Commonwealth Cup. VIRGINIA (2-9, 0-7 ACC) CAVALIERS 10 VirginiaTech has given up just 10 rushing touchdowns and 10 passing TDs during its 11 games this season. 9 Tech has won its last nine games against Virginia. 8 The Hokies have lost just eight ACC Coastal Division games since the league went to divisions in 2005. 7 Willie Byrn’s career-best 46 pass receptions this season tie him for the seventh most in a season for a Tech player. 6 The Hokies’current scoring streak of 241 consecutive games is the sixth-longest active streak in the FBS. 5 True freshmen cornerbacks Kendall Fuller and Brandon Facyson each have five interceptions during their first season with the Hokies. 4 Freshman Kalvin Cline’s 24 catches are the fourth-most in a season for aTech tight end under Coach Frank Beamer. 3 Tech has lost just three fumbles during its 11 games this season. 2 Opponents have scored just two touchdowns in the fourth quarter duringTech’s five games away from home. 1 Logan Thomas is the first player inTech history to surpass 10,000 yards in career offense with a current total of 10,064.

The top of the Cup is silver-plated with the names of the two schools. The scores of all 94 games in the Tech-Virginia rivalry are engraved on the sides. A map of the Commonwealth of Virginia with Blacksburg and Charlottesville marked with stars has been etched on the front of the trophy, which was produced by Josten’s. • Virginia Tech gained possession of the Cup first by defeating arch-rival Virginia, 27-9, at Lane Stadium/ Worsham Field in 1996. MR. DURABILITY • When Logan Thomas steps under center for the first play of Saturday’s game, he’ll set yet another school record. He already holds the records for total offense, passing yards, attempts, completions, passing scores and rushing TDs by a quarterback. This week will be his 39th consecutive start, breaking the school record for quarterbacks of 38, set by Bryan Randall from 2001-2004.
