Good catch. They just need to call it “NCAA Softball Tournament Rankings”

I saw that some of their rankings for teams other than VT were awfully different than polls that are pretty clearly based on the total body of work for the season. Mystery solved.

Softball America Final Poll
VT_AD 06/11/24 04:10 PM ET
No, I'm not ok with top 100 players
Hokie4Life_89 06/12/24 03:58 PM ET
You're giving me way too much credit for being creative enough
VT_AD 06/12/24 04:14 PM ET
It appears I'm not the only one who thought the same
Hokie4Life_89 06/12/24 05:38 PM ET
Butthurt over 3rd rate poll having UVA over VT has you in outing mode, sad,

Congrats to him

Some posters are thin-skinned, don’t worry about it.**

Softball America just showed they're SOFT between the ears. **
laphroaig 06/12/24 04:47 AM ET
We were ok with the Softball America top 100 players though**
VT_AD 06/12/24 11:52 AM ET
Right is right. You're paid to be right. Wrong should have consequences.**
laphroaig 06/12/24 12:25 PM ET
Do you think UVA should be ranked higher than Tech?**
dallasvt 06/12/24 11:58 AM ET
Nope, just pointing out that if we like what they're saying, we're good
VT_AD 06/12/24 02:10 PM ET
Well, certainly it is possible that
dallasvt 06/12/24 02:44 PM ET
Very valid
VT_AD 06/12/24 04:19 PM ET
I honestly think they made a mistake and put Virginia instead of Tech lol**
Hokie_Forester 06/11/24 09:19 PM ET
You're being honest but the word to describe the mistake itself is STUPID. **

Final Coaches Poll has the Hokies at #17
VTChip 06/11/24 08:23 PM ET
These polls make no sense
VT_AD 06/12/24 11:48 AM ET
Final RPI numbers have VT at #20, UVA at #29, Miami at #35
VTChip 06/12/24 12:49 PM ET
Agreed**
VT_AD 06/12/24 02:10 PM ET
Poppycock**
dallasvt 06/11/24 08:16 PM ET
We went 6-6 against the top 25, and 4-0 vs. the 2 teams ranked 20-25
HolidayInnHokie 06/11/24 05:21 PM ET
Agreed. Someone screwed up big time.
WVHokie84 06/11/24 05:53 PM ET
Based in general on ncaa tournament results**
hokietony 06/11/24 05:22 PM ET
Doesn’t explain UVA. They were 2-2 in the tourney. We were 1-2. Big deal.
HolidayInnHokie 06/11/24 05:59 PM ET
Like Liberty, they were regional runner up. Still garbage logic

HolidayInnHokie 06/11/24 10:17 PM ET
Even then, a team that didn't make supers could have played better than a
schubee 06/11/24 10:44 PM ET
Just left off the "Tech"**
TomTurkey 06/11/24 06:42 PM ET
Leaving off the "TECH" is as bad as forgetting to
laphroaig 06/12/24 11:34 AM ET
It's BAD. TMI.**
TomTurkey 06/12/24 11:35 AM ET
Lost 3 of the last 4 (all postseason), and 5 of the last 8 overall
hokiehigh2000 06/11/24 06:32 PM ET
There's only one team whose season doesn't end in disappointment.
laphroaig 06/12/24 04:57 AM ET
That’s not a real poll
hokiepro 06/12/24 12:04 AM ET
It's real poll. A real half-assed poll.**
laphroaig 06/12/24 04:59 AM ET
nonsense
Hokie4Life_89 06/11/24 04:25 PM ET
Ouch**
