Stanford · Virginia Tech · VirginiaStanford Football vs. Virginia Tech Kickoff Time. The Cardinal will head to Blacksburg, Virginia, looking to take a step towards a bowl bid.
Despite major signs of growth and improvement throughout the year, the results have been mixed. As the team enjoys its week off, the kickoff time and TV channel for its next game against Virginia Tech have been announced.
It could possibly be Stanford's final afternoon game of the season, with the final two games being on the road against Cal and at home against SMU. Virginia Tech is exceeding expectations in its first season under new coach James Franklin.
Sitting at 6-2 (3-2 ACC), the Hokies have won two straight games and are looking like a team hungry for a spot in the conference title game. Franklin, who spent three seasons as Vanderbilt's coach from 2011 to 2014 and the previous 12 seasons at Penn State (2014 to 2025), was hired by Virginia Tech after it went 3-9 last season and missed its first bowl game since 2022.
