Mike Jackson - Scores only receiving TD of game Jackson posted three receptions for 41 yards with a touchdown during Saturday's 21-14 victory against Boston College.

Impact Jackson had the only receiving touchdown of the game, as big plays through the air were a rarity in a game featuring rain and whipping winds up to gale force. Jackson will look to carry over the momentum in Friday's game at Lane Stadium against Pittsburgh, as ACC play continues.

Que'Sean Brown - Registers eight catches at B.C. Brown secured game highs with eight catches and 51 yards during Saturday's 21-14 win against Boston College.

Impact Brown's stat line might not look that impressive, but there were gale force winds and rain due to a passing nor'easter, and it was mostly a run-based offense on both sides. So, his line was actually quite impressive. In fact, only one other player had more than three catches in the game, and nobody on B.C. had more than two.

Jeffrey Overton Jr.'s 76-yard TD run lifts Virginia Tech to 21-14 comeback win over BC in nor'easter

Jeffrey Overton Jr. ran for a 76-yard go-ahead touchdown late in the fourth quarter as Virginia Tech rallied for a 21-14 victory over Boston College in a game played in a nor’easte...

Luke Reynolds - Weather dooms prolific tight end Reynolds compiled zero targets during Saturday's 21-14 victory over Boston College.

Impact Reynolds has been one of the more productive tight ends, but Virginia Tech's offensive attack was mostly ground-based due to gusty winds and rain in Chestnut Hill due to a passing Nor'easter. Reynolds still had five catches, but it was almost all on short routes with no reception going for more than seven yards. The star TE will look to bounce back Friday against Pitt.

SEPTEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Marcellous Hawkins Jr. - Outshined by backfield mate Hawkins recorded 10 rushes for 19 yards during Saturday's 21-14 victory over Boston College.

Impact Hawkins was mostly bottled up, and he also lost a fumble, and that's bad news on a day when it was a run-heavy attack. HC James Franklin stayed with the hot hand, as RB Jeffrey Overton had a career-high 209 rushing yards and a TD, pushing Hawkins to the back burner. Hawkins still saw double-digit touches, but 1.9 yards per attempt won't cut the mustard. He'll look to rebound Friday against Pitt.

SEPTEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Ethan Grunkemeyer - Weather keeps stats down Grunkemeyer was 22-for-35 passing for 147 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 21-14 victory over Boston College.

Impact Grunkemeyer was limited to mostly short routes, as the winds up to gale force were kicking up due to a Nor'easter. The offensive attack was mostly ground-based, much to the dismay of Grunkemeyer's fantasy managers who forgot to check the weather forecast. He'll look to bounce back Friday against visiting Pittsburgh.

SEPTEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Jeffrey Overton Jr. - Makes most of opportunities in career day Overton notched 25 carries for 209 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 21-14 victory against Boston College.

Impact The weather in Chestnut Hill was gloomy due to a Nor'easter, so Virginia Tech ran the ball 42 times. Overton was more than ready, posting a career-best day. In fact, it was just the second 100-yard day of his career, and his previous yardage high was 104 against VMI on Sept. 5. He has four rushing touchdowns through four games. He'll look to keep up the good work when Pitt pays a visit Friday.

Who's For Real: 'Big Noon Kickoff' Crew Names 4 Teams Flying Under The Radar

Joel Klatt, Brady Quinn & Matt Leinart Decide Which Undefeated Power Four Teams are REAL Contenders

SEPTEMBER 26 • FOX SPORTS

Mike Jackson - Joins starting lineup Saturday Jackson is set to start Saturday's game at Boston College, Andy Bitter of TechSideline.com reports.

Impact With Ayden Greene (undisclosed) out, Jackson is set for a more significant role in the ACC opener. Jackson only has two targets through three games this season though, so he likely still won't be a major fantasy contributor.

SEPTEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

L.J. Booker - Ruled out Saturday Booker (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's game at Boston College, per the ACC availability report.

Impact Booker is not available for Saturday's contest, though it's unlikely he would've played even if he was. His next chance to suit up is Friday versus Pittsburgh.

SEPTEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Takye Heath - Unavailable for Week 4 Heath (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's game at Boston College.

Impact Heath joins multiple players previously doubtful, now out for Saturday's game at Boston College. The wide receiver is still looking for production following his 2025 season with Virginia Tech.

SEPTEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Luke Stuewe - Ruled out Saturday Stuewe (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's game at Boston College, per the ACC availability report.

Impact Stuewe will miss his fourth straight game Saturday, though he was unlikely to play even if he was healthy. His next chance to suit up is Friday versus Pittsburgh.

SEPTEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Shamarius Peterkin - Out for Week 4 Peterkin (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's game at Boston College.

Impact Peterkin was doubtful for Week 4, so him sitting out at Boston College should be considered an unsurprising development. The wide receiver did not log any targets in September.

SEPTEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Ayden Greene - Won't play Saturday Greene (undisclosed) is officially out for Saturday's game versus Boston College, per the ACC availability report.

Impact Greene was apparently banged up either at some point in Week 3 or at some point leading up to Week 4, and he'll leave the Hokies down a key contributor out wide for the start of conference play. The Hokies face a short turnaround, too, before they return to action in Week 5 next Friday versus Pitt.

SEPTEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Bill Davis - Out for Week 4 Davis (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's game at Boston College.

Impact Given that Davis was doubtful Friday, him eventually being out Saturday should not be so surprising. The running back will finish September having not logged a single carry for Virginia Tech.

SEPTEMBER 25 • SI.COM

Shamarius Peterkin - Downgraded to doubtful Peterkin (foot) is now doubtful for Saturday's game at Boston College, per the ACC availability report.

Impact Peterkin's odds of suiting up are slimming down, and he is likely to miss his fourth straight game while still aiming to make his season debut. A lingering foot injury is putting his debut on hold after seeing action as a freshman with Virginia Tech, hauling in two receptions for 62 yards in four games.

SEPTEMBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Luke Stuewe - Doubtful to play Saturday Stuewe (undisclosed) is doubtful for Saturday's game at Boston College.

Impact Stuewe hasn't played this season, and it's unclear when he'll be able to return to the gridiron. His next chance to return will come against Pittsburgh next Friday, but there are no guarantees of him being available for this contest against the Panthers.

SEPTEMBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Takye Heath - Doubtful vs. Boston College Heath (undisclosed) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's contest at Boston College, per the ACC availability report.

Impact Heath is trending in the wrong direction to make his season debut, as he was downgraded to doubtful. The wideout is aiming to have a role in the passing attack this season.
