DURHAM, N.C. -

Tyrod Taylor threw two long touchdown passes and sixth-ranked Virginia Tech dodged a letdown and beat Duke 34-to-26 on Saturday.

Taylor was 17 of 22 for a career-high 327 yards with TD tosses of 36 yards to Danny Coale and 28 yards to Jarrett Boykin. Josh Oglesby had two late touchdown runs for Virginia Tech (4-1, 2-0 Atlantic Coast Conference).

Playing one week after dominating then-Number Nine Miami, the Hokies were nowhere near that sharp this time -- but they were good enough to claim their ninth straight victory over the Blue Devils.

Thaddeus Lewis was 22 for 40 for 359 yards with two touchdown passes, including a 4-yarder to Austin Kelly with 25 seconds left.
