Congratulations to our Devils.
Makes me feel a bit uneasy how that might be up on the tech locker room white board though.

23- Oregon
22- BYU
21- Duke
20- Mich St
19- Miss St
18- Miami

Va Tech falls outside of the rankings.

CBS's projected AP Top 25 (https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/tomorrows-top-25-today-texas-kentucky-set-to-enter-new-college-football-rankings/) has us on the outside looking in. They have the bottom few teams as: 20-BYU, 21- Texas A&M, 22- Oregon, 23- Miss St, 24- Boise St, 25- TCU.

In the coaches poll at #23, with VT right behind at #24. Next week's winner moves up, loser drops out.

Link from USA Today (http://sportspolls.usatoday.com/ncaa/football/polls/coaches-poll/2018/5/). Kentucky, Texas, and Duke are in. TCU, Texas A&M, and Boston College are out.
