The Hokies seemed to be firing on all cylinders in the 79-73 win with four players scoring in double figures, including 20-plus point performances from Justyn Mutts (24) and Nahiem Alleyne (22).
STREAKY
- Virginia Tech extended its win streak against Notre Dame to three games, the longest of the series that dates back to March 25, 1975. A three-game run is tied for the longest active win streak that Tech holds against an ACC opponent (Clemson).
- The Hokies snapped Notre Dame's six-game win streak. With the win, Tech has now snapped two teams' win streaks of four or more games this season (Cornell - 4).
- Tech's win snaps its four-game ACC losing streak. The Hokies' last ACC win came on Feb. 27, 2021 against Wake Forest.

GOT BUCKETS?
- Tech shot a season-high 59.2 percent from the field (29-49). Beyond the arc, the Hokies shot 50 percent (10-20), which is the second-highest number of the year. Saturday's game marked the second time Virginia Tech shot 50 percent or higher in both categories (Cornell).
- Justyn Mutts and Nahiem Alleyne both scored season highs and accounted for 58 percent of Tech's scoring.
- Saturday was the second time two players scored 20-plus points in the same game this season (Aluma and Mutts at Duke). The last time that happened in the same season for Tech was in the 2019-20 campaign (at Wake Forest and vs. Miami).
KEEP BELIEVING
- The Hokies were 0-5 when trailing at the half before Saturday's contest, in which they trailed 40-32 at halftime. Shooting 70 percent from the field and 63 percent from three in the second half spurred on Tech's rally.
- Virginia Tech trailed by 10 with 14:53 remaining in the second half. The last time the Hokies erased a 10-point deficit and won the game was against Virginia on Jan. 30, 2021.
- "First of all, what a great atmosphere," Notre Dame head coach Mike Brey said after the game. "I thought the Virginia Tech crowd kept their team believing the whole time."
