Tech goes to air for victory Auoclattd Prtu BLACKSBURG, Va. Virginia Tech quarterback Jeff Bolton tossed, three touchdown passes, two Mike Giacolone, to lead the Hokles to a 34-12 homecoming victory yes-; terday over Appalachian State. Bolton, starting his second straight game since Steve Casey broke his thumb, passed for 261 yards, hitting" 11 of 17 attempts.

Taking advantage of numerous Appalachian State turnovers In the first half, Tech raced to a 19-0 first- quarter lead. Following an interception of an Appalachian State pass, Bolton got Virginia Tech will be the University of Kentucky's homecoming opponent at 7 p.m. Saturday in Lexington. Tech a 6-0 lead with a 28-yard touchdown pass to Giacolone. After a Don Wade field goal made the score 9-0, junior tailback Cyrus Lawrence increased the margin to 16-0 with a four-yard run.

The touchdown came two plays B.J. Zwinak recovered "a fumble at the Appalachian State 24. Wade added another field goal at the end of the first quarter, then Bolton lofted a 72-yard bomb to Billy Hite to make it 25-0. Appalachian State battled back in the third quarter behind the passing of quarterback Randy Joyce, who threw 13-yard and 32-yard touchdown passes to Jerome McDaniel, cutting Tech's lead to 28-12. Bolton, however, put the game out of reach with his third scoring pass of the day.

He hit Giacolone on a 45-'; yard scoring play with less than one minute left in the third period. The win snapped a two-game losing streak for Virginia Tech State dropped to 3-4-1. Continued from Page One on which a Georgia punt nicked the helmet of a Kentucky player. However, for UK, which has now lost six straight since winning its opening game and is 0-3 in the SEC, the rest of the battlefield report is numbingly familiar. In fact, it's similar to the weekly bulletins you used to hear on "Saturday Night Live" about the condition of Generalissimo Franco.

That's right After 49 days, the Kentucky offense is still dead. "We kept waiting for them to do something different," said Georgia defensive guard Tim Crowe. "We expected them to come out running, but we thought that sooner or later, sometime before the half, they'd try something else. They never did, and I sure was happy. What they were doing was a lot easier to read." If you like reading the phone book.

Opening with Henry for the second straight game, UK netted only 39 rushing yards in 24 attempts before halftime. It made three first downs in that span and crossed mid-field only twice the last time because of a spectacular 43-yard punt return by free safety Andy Molls. The first play after Molls' darting, dodging trip from his own 19 to the Georgia 38 was a Henry rollout pass. It was intercepted by Georgia rover-back Tim Bobo with just 1:08 left before intermission and returned 14 yards to the Bulldogs' 47. Senior quarterback Buck Belue completed a 13-yard pass to Lon Buckler, a junior walk-on who was awarded a scholarship last week, and broke loose for 24 yards on a scramble before Georgia was forced to settle for Butler's 40-yard field goal and a 13-0 halftime lead.

"The score might have been greater If we had executed a little better," said Belue. He completed 12 of 17 passes for 133 yards. He also rUshed 10 times for 41 yards, including a five-yard keeper for a touchdown In the third quarter. That touchdown capped a march that started on the Georgia 20, a drive that seemed to bog down seven plays after it started with a fourth-and-25 from the 21 but was reborn when a wind-blown punt glanced off the helmet of UK's John Grimsley. "Kentucky kind of pinned their ears back and came at us, and that gave me some opportunities to run," Belue said.

"They used some 'corner blitzes' we weren't expecting, and I had to come off my primary receiver two or three times because their deep coverage was better than what we'd seen on film." However, UK's defense led by linebackers Kevin McClelland and Grimsley with 14 tackles apiece was no surprise to Walker, the No. 1 rusher in Bulldog history and the nation's No. 2 runner this season. i'l don't know about the other guys, but I knew going in that they had a better defense than people wre giving them credit for," Walker said. The 6-foot-l, 222-pound Ail-American netted 129 yards in 33 carries against UK, giving him 2,813 for his remarkable 18-game career.

Walker also figured prominently in Georgia's first two scores. He ran five times for 38 yards as the Bulldogs drove from their own 32 to the UK 20, where Butler kicked a 37-yard field goal in the first quarter. After linebacker Nate Taylor recovered Henry's fumble at UK's 26 Just two plays later, Walker gained 19 w.

Those guys stuck me better than anybody has all year. They were all over the ball. I wouldn't want to play them every week." But it's likely that Georgia's de fense, which got nine tackles each from Taylor and fellow linebacker Tommy Thurson, would sponsor UK's offense for an extended en gagement The Wildcats didn't put anything together until Randy Jen kins, who replaced Henry on the first play of the fourth quarter, teamed up with tailback Henry Parks on a 46-yard pass play. A sack ended that march, but Jen kins, hitting Parks for 19 yards and tight end Jim Campbell for 15 and 17, later drove UK from its own 20 to the Georgia two. That's where fullback Richard Abraham's second-down fumble was recovered by cornerback Steve Kelly with just 3:42 left in the game, preserving the Bulldogs' record of surrendering only one TD on the ground this season.

They rank second and fourth in the nation, respectively, in rushing defense and scoring defense. Jenkins finished 5 of 8 for 114 yards, Henry 1 of 5 for eight yards. Henry has hit on 13 of 54 pass attempts over the last two seasons. Kentucky coach Fran Curci said that Jenkins would have appeared earlier if not for the I5-play, 83-yard, 5' -minute drive that Georgia unwound late In the third quarter. It ended with an interception by UK's Tom Petty.

"We were planning to give the offense one more series under Terry after halftime to get the feel of things again, and then come with Randy," Curci said. "As it turned out, one series was all we had in that quarter." Is Jenkins now a strong candidate to reclaim the job? "Probably," Curci said. "We really have a problem there. We can't settle down there. "I didn't think we could play games against that great Georgia defense.

We had some option plays we thought would work, and I still think they could have worked. "We just can't help ourselves. Georgia's defense controlled the line of scrimmage, and we were younger and smaller."

Alston rushed for 107 yards and Danny Miller added 94 to lead a ground game that piled up 378 yards. The Citadel (4-3) did its job on defense, too, holding Newberry (2-5) to minus-two yards rushing.
