Comments
Thanks for the summary. Good info.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Welp another dud evening for Men
Last night....
Pitt lost to Quinnipiac
BC lost to Tulane
UVA lost to Butler
Tonight...
NC State lost to Seton Hall
Notre Dame lost to 3-2 Kansas
Syracuse may have had best game. Took #3 Houston to OT ... but lost
great. so when we actually have a good team we will get the Greenberg treatment and be left out of the tourney with 24 wins because the ACC is considered weak this year.
ACC men are 5-1 with Syracuse losing to Kansas and Cal still faces UCLA at 10pm
Women laying more eggs. Pitt lost to Lafayette, SMU lost to St Louis, UVA down nine at halftime to Nebraska so BC is the only one that won today so far...faced powerhouse Merrimack
...and Wahoos lose again. Keep that Wahoo losing streak trending...
Hokies take on Colorado State today at 5PM in the Battle 4 Atlantis. We are 5.5 point favorites. ESPN matchup says we have 36% chance to win. One of those must be wrong. Game is on ESPNU. Do we want to comment here or start a new thread?
Game is going to start closer to 6 PM. Still 4 minutes left in the game playing now. VCU leading South Florida by 9 with 3:40 remaining.
I'm looking at their schedule so far, not sure they've played anyone, lost to someone named "Denver"; but they have been scoring a lot in the process.
What's going on? The game isn't on the U or the deuce. HELP
Edit: looks like tip is at 5:38, supposedly on the U.
It hasn't started yet. VCU just wrapped up on same court.
Edit to add: having the same tournament on the same court on different channels is a bit confusing
CBS app says tip at 5:50 ET
EDIT: CBS sports app was wrong by 10 minutes, so I missed the first few minutes of the game
ESPN trying their hardest to make me hate the whole state of Louisiana
How so?
They're showing a show about Louisiana instead of the game
Because the game hadn't started yet and they needed filler; but I had the sound off so didn't realize it was LA.
Neo just went down with apparent lower body injury.
Looks like a rolled ankle type of injury on replay.
My house is chaos right now and I haven't been able to watch the replay. Hopefully, it's nothing serious.
He just came back out on the floor. Looks ok so far.
Just got home. Sounds like a lot of drama so far but good guys up 33-21 with 2 min left in the half.....
Sorry all got pulled into work because of National Guard shooting. Thought I would be able to do writeup today on leave.
Zero effort to get offensive rebounds. I really don't understand why Young waffles on this, especially with our depth in the post this year.
Suck it Rechsteiner.
They are letting the CSU big just move his feet all over the paint no dribble
Too many of our guys stopping their drives to the basket. CSU has shown they will foul. Go to the rim.
Gurdak got all ball there. That foul was BS
Should have been an And 1 for Avdalas there
We've given up 4 or 5 layups on back door cuts. Got to be aware of that and cut off the passing lanes.
Again and again...
Schutt can't buy a bucket today
No bucket on three offensive rebounds...oof
Need a run here. Need to separate.
Not sure where the foul was there
Got to love Bedfords defense
That shot from Neo was ELITE
Goaltending and a shooting foul? But no. Turnover us
Should have gotten a technical foul for faking. That would have ended the game because it would have been two shots and the ball
Difference between 2 point game it is versus a possible 9 point lead
Why is Lawal on the bench for most of the second half? Not in foul trouble....
Yes he was. Got his 3rd early in 2nd half.
But still on the bench over the last 5-6 minutes....
looks like i rejoined the game just in time
ugly win
but it's a win
Holy shit had to make it a heart attack moment. Been hurt too many times there
took the words right out of my mouth!
FAM!!!
HOKIES WIN FAM!
Thought for sure that was an L after Bedford missed the front end of the 1 and 1. Phew.
Colorado St is a top 100 team in Kenpom. That's a good win right there.
Not pretty, but a "W" is a "W". Go Hokies!
Play Wichita State-St. Mary's winner tomorrow at 2:30.
