That's an unjustifiable drop IMO. Lost two games by a total of 3 runs.

Ten spot drop doesn't add up - it's simply bad math. ** Edited by laphroaig at 2/17/2026, 12:17:58 PM

ESPN has the Hokies at #20 this week**

Now that makes more sense than D1.**

I've seen 9 of the teams ranked above VT play; the advantage of going . . .

Clemson got whacked out of both polls you presented. **

They lost to Texas State 4-0 and got run-ruled by Arkansas (12-0)

Use it as motivation. Think that's a little crazy to drop them 10 spots

How do you put USC ahead of VT? All their games have been at home and we're

shouldn't lose to less talented unranked teams -still many opportunities **
SuperFeHokie • 02/17/26 09:55 AM ET
You're right however 3 run difference in 2 losses doesn't add up to 10.**
laphroaig • 02/17/26 12:21 PM ET
losing 2 games by 3 is twice as bad as winning = 2+3 X2 = 10???**
VermontHokie • 02/17/26 12:34 PM ET
3 runs x 2 games = 6. 5-0 start was worth 6 spots up. No way 2-2 record

Logic. Hrrruummmph!!**
