Running back Bhayshul Tuten is emerging as a game-changer for the Virginia Tech Hokies . Following an electrifying performance against Boston College last Thursday, Tuten was named the Walter Camp National FBS Player of the Week , solidifying his status as one of college football's premier running backs. In his standout game, Tuten shattered the school record for the most rushing yards in a single game, accumulating an impressive 266 yards.
He broke the previous school record of 253 yards set by Darren Evans in 2008 against Maryland. This monumental achievement not only etched Tuten's name in the Virginia Tech record books but also showcased his remarkable talent on a national stage.

Additionally, Tuten has totaled 871 rushing yards, the second most in the conference. Diving deeper into the stats, Tuten's performances are truly remarkable. Averaging 7.

His ability to break tackles and explode into open space has become a defining trait of his game, making him a nightmare for opposing defenses. TUTEN TO THE #ThisIsHome | on @espn | @bhayshul pic.
