Sports Illustrated continues the sports media dissing of Virginia Tech in preseason top 25 lists. I certainly hope that the chip is growing on the collective shoulder of Hokie Football. This list is even more illuminating if you look at who is listed and who isn’t in the 25-10 range.
To the sports media types at SI, the Hokies aren’t better than Group of 5 teams Florida Atlantic Owls, Arizona Wildcats, West Virginia which is listed at #10 after a middling 7-6 season and more head scratchers. One thing that I have learned about the quality and breadth of knowledge of any sports pundit is what that writer or group of writers thinks is going to happen in the 25-11 range.
