Virginia Tech climbs one CFB writers' list of top jobs for two major reasons

The Virginia Tech football team returns from its first bye of the season on Friday night when it hosts California. Interim coach Philip Montgomery will be looking to win his third game since Brent Pry was fired last month.

Virginia Tech has a search committee in place to find the next head coach, but a slew of openings across college football leaves a lot of questions, mainly, where does the job stack up to other openings? Penn State and Florida are two jobs that vault ahead of Virginia Tech's, but do any others? Nicole Auerbach of NBC Sports ranked the current openings, and she surprisingly had Virginia Tech high on her list.
