Va Tech's only true test of note this year will likely be Miami who will probably be a top 7-8 team when they play. Yes, they'll play BC and Virginia, but there's a good chance that neither will be ranked in the top 20-25 by the time that they play VaTech. So what will VaTech have to stand on? A win at home over Miami if they beat Miami? Is that more impressive than UT's win on the road against Ohio State? No, it's not. And the rest of VaTech's schedule isn't impressive enough to catapult them over UT in my opinion. It just won't be that difficult of a schedule by the time it's all said and done.

Don't forget the conference championship games...
Assuming Florida St wins the Atlantic with maybe 2 loses (1 conf, at Fla), Va Tech could notch another "quality win". Beating a 3 or 4 loss Neb or Colorado won't do much for Texas.
The sad fact is by the time it's all said and done the win at OSU will be a distant memory for some voters.
P.S. I'm just playing devil's advocate about M. Vick.
