We've finally made it to Selection Sunday as Virginia Tech is set to make back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances for only the third time in program history despite losing to Notre Dame in the second round of the ACC Tournament.
The Hokies saw their RPI take a significant hit after their loss to Notre Dame but other than that, the Hokies' resume didn't take much of a hit from their loss to the Fighting Irish. Virginia Tech was safely in the field no matter what happened in Brooklyn and given the numerous amount of losses and low amount of wins suffered by teams projected around them on the bracket, VT's seed likely wasn't affected much by their loss.
Virginia Tech will be headed to their second-straight NCAA Tournament with a solid resume headlined by the metrics and their quadrant 1 victories. With that said, here's a look at their resume.
- Quadrant 1 Record: 5-7
- Quadrant 2 Record: 3-3
- Quadrant 3 Record: 5-1
- Quadrant 4 Record: 8-0
- RPI: 62
- SOS: 72
- Non-Conference SOS: 326
- KenPom: 32
- BPI: 28
- Strength of Record: 29
- Sagarin: 37
- KPI: 40
