🔼 Brunch and Basketball. Still trying to kick the Thanksgiving food coma? Don’t worry, we’ve got some viewing plans for you while sitting on the couch.

In their third and final game of their stay in the Bahamas, the Virginia Tech men’s squad squares off with in-state rival, VCU, this morning at 10:30 am on ESPN2.

The Hokies won their Battle 4 Atlantis opener against Colorado State, before dropping a tough battle with unbeaten Saint Mary’s on Thursday.

🔼 The Clash. Throw away the records. Tomorrow is a whole other ballgame.

The Virginia Tech football squad will conclude its 2025 run with the annual Commonwealth Clash against 17th-ranked Virginia on Saturday, Nov. 29 at 7 p.m. ET.

The contest, which features a Hokies team looking to finish strong and a Cavaliers team who is 5-1 at home, will serve as yet another entry into the esteemed “Smithfield Commonwealth Clash”.

With plenty of storylines and exciting moments to come, here’s What to Watch as the Hokies speed towards the finish line of the 2025 campaign this weekend.  

🎙️ THE LEVEL 7 PODCAST

New Virginia Tech football coach James Franklin joins Hokies' broadcasters Bill Roth and Mike Burnop for a long-form sit-down interview. Franklin discusses why he came to Tech, the accelerated recruiting window, and what his goals are for Virginia Tech football.

And a look ahead to Saturday's Tech-UVa football game in Charlottesville.
