Beamer doesn't pay much attention to the polls. In fact, he had to ask media members on Monday's teleconference exactly where Virginia Tech was ranked this week.
So he wasn't offended by ESPN analyst Kirk Herbstreit's comments Sunday night criticizing the Hokies' soft schedule and saying they weren't deserving of their No. 4 ranking in the coaches' poll. Beamer did respond, though.
"What I would say is that we're a football team that's improved where we are," he said. "I'm proud of where this football team is. And I also think people respect our program. ...
"I do think 4th is respect for our program and how we do things and how we've been able to consistently win here at Virginia Tech. So I think that's a reflection of that."
