Projection: need to automatically qualify
Virginia Tech's season has been a mixed bag, with an overall solid group of wins but a troubling inability to perform consistently against stronger opponents. Notably, victories against teams like Clemson and South Carolina are commendable, but losses to North Carolina and Duke underscore the challenges faced when up against elite competition. A concerning aspect of the resume is the team’s performance in marquee matchups, including a lopsided defeat to Michigan, which diminishes confidence in their ability to compete at a higher level. They have a chance to bolster their standing with upcoming games, especially if they can secure wins against more consistently ranked opponents and avoid further slip-ups against lower-tier teams.
