Virginia Tech Ranked No. 10 in Preseason AP Poll

Two weeks after coming in at No. 6 in the preseason coaches' poll, the Hokies have landed at No. 10 in the preseason AP Top 25. At the time, I said No. 6 was a little high for Virginia Tech and media seems to agree.

Other teams of note: 3. Boise State; 13. Miami; 16. Georgia Tech; 18. North Carolina; 20. Florida State; RV: Clemson, Central Michigan, Boston College.

Virginia Tech's preseason and postseason AP rankings since joining the ACC are after the jump.

I would have to say the preseason rankings .....

compared to the final rankings for the last 5 years have been pretty close over all. If this season holds true to form you could predict the hokies would finish some where between 8-13.

A lot will depend on the first game, which as a BSU fan I hope you are defeated, if they win and continue doing well all year they could finish very high. I hope they kick some serious ass all year…….except for the game on Sept. 6.

Best of luck this year Hokie fans.

BTW….what is a Hokie? and what does it have to do with turkeys and gobblers? Just askin………

A Hokie

as I was once told by a Christiansburg native and VT grad who also sent his twin daughters to VT, is an ass-kicking turkey.

I believe.

I would be very surprised if BSU can hold VT to 14 points. As in, extremely. VT’s offense will be better than anything they saw last year.
