Men's Hoops vs Syracuse

Didn't see any threads going and figured it was worth discussing. For those that haven't seen, we lost 68-66 after trailing by 19 at half.

Random thoughts:
If they play with half as much energy in the first half that they did in the second half we may well have won this thing.

Hats off to that 2nd half effort though, without JVZ out there they scrapped and battled for loose balls hit some clutch shots against that Cuse zone.

Buzz Williams is incredible to watch. The man was sweating like he was playing and is as intense a coach as I've seen at VT. (including Bud)

Good crowd today, very loud on tv during the comeback.

Maybe this is one those games that a team points to as a turning point in their development and growth as a group. I was disappointed when Mueller airmailed the potential game winning three, but the fact they even found themselves in that situation was remarkable. I know it's gonna be a long ACC season, but today gives at least a little bit of hope.
