Virginia Tech's second loss of the season has seen the Orange and Maroon dropped from the AP and Coaches polls.

After ranking 19th and 20th in the respective polls a week ago, yesterday's 23-16 loss to Wake Forest has seen the team drop to 3-2 - and completely out of the "others receiving votes" category to the AP, while slumping to No. 38 unofficially - the 13th-highest team outside the top 25.

Clemson remains the consensus No. 1 overall, while No. 4 Notre Dame (not on the VT schedule this season), No. 12 Miami, and No. 15/13 North Carolina represent the ACC in the two polls. Non-conference opponent Liberty, currently an unofficial No. 27 in each poll, will likely be a ranked program when the Flames come to Blacksburg Nov. 7, as well.

VT was previously unranked after the first game of the year, a win over NC State.
