Six ACC schools are ranked in the pre-season poll. Tech plays 11 of the Top 26 teams this spring. #3 UNC, #6 BC, #7 Syracuse, #8 USC, #14 UVA, #15 Notre Dame, #16 JMU, #17 Colorado, #20 Duke, #21 Elon, and #26 Denver. I'm sure that Louisville and Delaware are ranked somewhere between #26-#35. We won't have a problem with strength of schedule and RPI. Being unranked should motivate the team even more. We have #8 USC as our home opener next Saturday.
