1993 Independence Bowl
Virginia Tech's offense was ranked 11th nationally in scoring, averaging 36.4points per game, and 10th in rushing offense, averaging 242.8 yards per game.[2] The totals were the most recorded to that point by a Virginia Tech offense.[17] That high-ranking rushing attack was led by Dwayne Thomas, who accumulated 1,130yards and 11touchdowns during the regular season. Thomas' 11touchdowns were the most for a Tech running back since 1969.[18] Thomas was ably assisted by a capable offensive line anchored by center Jim Pyne, who earned consensus All-America honors in recognition of his performance. By being named to every All-America team in the country, Pyne became the first consensus All-American in Virginia Tech history.[19]
