King, Smith power Georgia Tech in 45-17 victory at Virginia

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) Haynes King ran for two touchdowns and threw for another and Dontae Smith ran for two more scores and Georgia Tech beat Virginia 45-17 on Saturday.

The Yellow Jackets (5-4, 4-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) won their second game in a row, ending a season-long pattern of alternating wins and losses, and moved within a victory of qualifying for a bowl game. Their win total is their best in the last five seasons.

Coach Brent Key was especially pleased that the victory came a week after his team rallied to beat then No. 17 North Carolina 46-42. Earlier this year, the Yellow Jackets beat No. 17 Miami, then lost the following week to Boston College,
