10 of the Top 25 in last week's AP poll suffered defeat yesterday. At least 6 of those 10 will almost certainly drop out of the Top 25 when the new poll results are released today. It will be interesting to see if VT is able to gain one of the "open" Top 25 slots now up for grabs. Working against VT is the fact that they were "idle" over the weekend. Pollsters tend to be very reactionary so look for teams that had a degree of "visibility" yesterday...such as UNC, Cal, Colorado, etc to move ahead of VT and into the rankings. The old adage "out of sight, out of mind" may work against the Hokies...but there is at least a reasonable chance that VT sneaks into the rankings.
