They wouldn’t be if their name wasn’t UNC

Also AP poll does not affect net rankings…

CBS Sports ACC Early Preview Article tabs us as an NCAA Tournament Team**
SteveInBaltimore • 06/03/26 01:39 PM ET
I tend to agree, the schedule also sets up really well for us
soflahokie • 06/04/26 09:39 AM ET
We basically play all the top projected teams at home. Florida st is away
SC_Hokie • 06/03/26 04:10 PM ET
F$U is away...push me over with a feather...lol**
EDGEMAN • 06/04/26 10:39 AM ET
We also play UNC at home.

He’ll either choke or go 30-10-10. There is no in between**
WV Gobbler • 06/03/26 07:50 PM ET
Q1 at home is top 25.
SC_Hokie • 06/03/26 07:18 PM ET
Q1 home games are top 30.**
Vaguy70 • 06/05/26 04:42 PM ET
Yeah my bad.
SC_Hokie • 06/05/26 06:42 PM ET
Yeah, right now they look like a borderline top 30ish team this year.**
Vaguy70 • 06/05/26 07:09 PM ET
They are ranked No. 25 in ESPN Way-to-Early Top 25 Poll FWIW.**

They wouldn’t be if their name wasn’t UNC ◄

Hard for me to imagine how these predictions are made for VT.
VT ChemE 1986 • 06/03/26 03:14 PM ET
I recommend you try imagining a healthy team that doesn't lack a starter
HokieJonez • 06/03/26 05:31 PM ET
Of course with a 76 team tournament, I think 9-9 ACC is going to be pretty
SteveInBaltimore • 06/03/26 03:23 PM ET
8-10 B1X and SEC teams are a lock. A 9-9 ACC team is on the cusp.**
EDGEMAN • 06/04/26 10:23 AM ET
All depends on conference strength in non-conf games
SteveInBaltimore • 06/04/26 10:29 AM ET
ESPN and Fox will ensure their preferred conferences are well represented
EDGEMAN • 06/04/26 10:39 AM ET
It’s based on Nov/dec results as someone said above.
