Well, the weekly college football polling results dribble out onto the “paper”, like so much pumpkin guts collected on the local paper’s sports section before Halloween. The November 20th iterations of the football popularity contests are out, and the Victorious 8-3, on the cusp of an ACC Coastal Championship is left in the polling dust. Though not completely surprising, it is frustrating to see the sports writers ignore the success of Virginia Tech, and coddle other teams with 8-3 records like they are precious spoiled children.
The Associated Press Sports Writers’ Poll from Yahoo Sports (choose the poll in the drill down) lists the Hokies as having a mere 77 votes and coming up at #27.
