What is VT's ranking by percentage of made FT's?

I truly don't know the answer to that question. But the important thing here is not the total number of made free throws, but the percentage of free throws made. Some teams get to the line more often than others...once you're there, making FTs is one of the best ways to give your team a chance to win.

A breakaway dunk is easier,

Well, as everyone no doubt agrees, that's due to extra practice.
