Though seeing the Heels with a number in front of their name sure would be nice :-) If we beat VT and are not ranked, oh well. Maybe that will give the Blue Heaven Boys more reason to beat Miami the following weekend!

It just seems to me that these two wins have already been minimized in the eyes of voters, and a VT win would reflect more heavily on what is wrong with VT, and not a perspective of how good UNC is. We might have to do more damage than is necessary in order to impress the voters. I hope they do not have this mentality, but it seems it is already the one they are garnishing.
