  Virginia Tech is casting a wide net to try and build an explosive offense. It's been one of the main themes of the offseason for offensive coordinator Tyler Bowen and he's welcomed all ideas from his staff. That's why Keshawn King and Chance Black found themselves working with the wide receivers towards the end of spring camp. "Both guys are explosive and quick," Tech running backs coach Stu Holt said, on Monday. "Their change of direction is very good. They catch the ball well and their hands are good. That lends to the ability to run routes and to figure out how to manipulate defensive coverage. They have that naturally."

Holt said all six of his running backs can catch the ball out of the backfield, but King and Black have a chance to establish more of a hyphenate role beyond just motioning out of the backfield into the slot. Tech's running backs combined for 33 catches and 366 yards last year with Raheem Blackshear's 25 catches for 249 yards leading the way. "They are very, very talented players," Tech receivers coach Fontel Mines said. "Offensively, you don't want guys that are that talented sitting on the sideline...We are trying to find ways to get the ball into those guys' hands." - Roanoke Times

  Kaleb Eleby threw two touchdowns and ran for another and Western Michigan recorded its second bowl victory in program history, rolling past Nevada 52-24 in the Quick Lane Bowl on Monday. Sean Tyler rushed for 146 yards on 14 carries and returned a kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown for Western Michigan (8-5). Jaxson Kincaide, a Nevada transfer, rushed for 105 yards on 17 carries and scored two touchdowns. The Broncos' only other bowl victory came in the 2015 Bahamas Bowl against Middle Tennessee.

Compared with that one, the Quick Lane Bowl was practically a home game for them. "Doing it in Detroit is really special," coach Tim Lester said. "To have fans here, so many alumni here...tons of people from Kalamazoo made the trip. It was awesome to see the hotel alive last night. And to play the way we did, in front of them with their support, it all came together. It's a big deal." Nate Cox passed for 121 yards and a touchdown and Devonte Lee rushed for 85 yards and a touchdown for Nevada (8-5). Cox got the start after Carson Strong, who threw a school-record 36 touchdown passes, chose not to play in order to prepare for the NFL draft. The Wolf Pack was coached by assistant Vai Taua after Jay Norvell accepted the Colorado State coaching job. - Western Michigan/AP College Football

  Hayden Wolff threw three touchdown passes to Ali Jennings III and Old Dominion saw a 21-point lead evaporate in the fourth quarter only to rally for a 56-34 win over Charlotte in the regular season finale Saturday to become bowl eligible for the first time in six seasons. Old Dominion's last appearance in a bowl game was in 2016, when the Monarchs defeated Eastern Michigan in the Bahamas Bowl. ODU is not guaranteed a bowl-game bid, however. Conference USA has seven guaranteed bowl bids, but after North Texas upset previously unbeaten UTSA it now has eight bowl-eligible teams. Jonathan Cruz kicked a pair of field goals to start the fourth quarter, pulling the 49ers within one, 35-34 with 10:04 left to play.

Blake Watson capped a 75-yard drive with a 2-yard run for his third score with 6:42 left and Wolff and Jennings hooked up for a 36-yard score with 3:49 to play to make it 49-34. The Monarchs added a touchdown when Charlotte quarterback Chris Reynolds was sacked and fumbled into the end zone, where Deeve Harris recovered for the final score. Jennings' career day included nine catches for 252 yards. Blake Watson carried 18 times for 115 yards and two touchdowns and Wolff finished 17 of 26 for 328 yards, but was picked off twice, once for a touchdown that brought Charlotte to within 28-14 at intermission. - Old Dominion/AP College Football
