  VMI coach Scott Wachenheim, who guided the Keydets to their first winning campaign since 1981 and their first back-to-back winning seasons since 1961-62, is stepping down after eight seasons. Wachenheim made the announcement Sunday on his Twitter and Facebook pages. The school confirmed the move to The Associated Press in an email. In his statement, the 60-year-old Wachenheim said: "I believe I need to step back from VMI and reassess with Karla, as a partner, our future and the next chapter of our lives. VMI is a challenging place and I have loved working to find ways to win." He has coached the Keydets for eight seasons, compiling a 24-62 record, but after winning six games in each of the past two seasons, the team finished 1-10 this season, losing 26-22 on Saturday at The Citadel in the Military Classic of the South. During the 2021 season, played in the spring because of the COVID-19 pandemic, VMI went 6-2 and won the Southern Conference title, its first championship since 1977, and made its first appearance in the FCS playoffs. The Keydets finished 6-5 last season. - AP College Football

  Jalen Holston rushed for 99 yards and a career-high three touchdowns and Virginia Tech snapped a seven-game losing streak by surprising Liberty 23-22 on Saturday. The Hokies' defense, maligned during the lengthy losing skid, came up with two big stops in the final minutes to preserve the one-point lead. They forced an incomplete pass by Liberty quarterback Kaidon Salter to get the ball back near midfield, then forced Johnathan Bennett to lose a fumble on the Flames' next possession. Holston picked up a key first down that allowed the Hokies (3-8) to salt the final minute away. Virginia Tech quarterback Grant Wells completed 14 of 20 passes for 148 yards. Liberty (8-3) rotated two quarterbacks - Bennett and Salter - with mixed results. Bennett led the only offensive touchdown drive on his 15-yard touchdown run, and Salter threw for 119 yards on 12-of-18 passing. Holston's second touchdown run gave the Hokies a 17-7 lead that lasted for 14 seconds. Shedro Louis, playing one week after attending his father's funeral in Immokalee, Florida, returned the ensuing kickoff 97 yards for a touchdown. Nick Brown converted on a 47-yard field goal before halftime to tie the game at 17. Holston converted on his third rushing touchdown with 7:46 remaining that gave the Hokies the game-winning score. - Virginia Tech/AP College Football
