On Tuesday night, the first College Football Playoff rankings were released. No, Virginia Tech wasn't anywhere near the rankings as they currently sit at 3-6 with three games remaining in what has been a frustrating season.
Since the school fired Brent Pry in September, the Hokies have been competitive under interim coach Philip Montgomery while the Virginia Tech search committee finds the next head coach. Wins over Wofford, North Carolina State, and California have Tech 3-3 under Montgomery.
This week, Virginia Tech is on its second bye of the season and second in three weeks.
