In the logic of the early polling, the Hokies blow the doors off, and still drop in the AP Poll to #13. It’s difficult to untwist the logic and mental gymnastics of the sports media people, but that’s the way the vote count went, including Clemson’s near loss salvation by bad officiating at Kyle Field at the hands of Texas A&M who has proven that Clemson is beatable and the 6 #1 votes are there because.. well... just because.
Tech’s AP one point drop is a bit disappointing, because short of rubbing William and Mary off of the planet, there was little else the team could do.
