Can't believe I actually expected better. Got my hopes up when our schedule did not have to have our home court advantage screwed for a big game by having the students out, but same old Tobacco Road. Though to be fair it could be ESPN scheduling by name recognition. Already bracing for Duke and UNC to get every call from every ref in every ACC game, even though their coaches have changed. But we will cross that bridge when we get there, just like we crossed this one!

Mutts was awesome, excluding his five turnovers. Too bad that megadunk he tried over Minnesota's big didn't land. That would have been Deron Washington levels of epic.

Fun fact, the Hokie Bird propose at the WVU game in 2001 to his girlfriend. The whole section I was in let out a loud cheer because we all knew him as we went to the same high school. It was probably the only thing any WVU fans cheered for all day

Ok Super Beaver story.....
Once upon a time in the early 2000s when HokieEnginerd and I were dating, I went to Blacksburg to visit him for the weekend. We were watching football in his apartment. I was half asleep and not paying any attention to who was playing. I looked up and the camera was showing the mascot wearing a cape. For some reason in my brain registered the gopher as a beaver (I think they had been talking about playing NCAAF and playing South Carolina against Oregon State). I pointed out that it was a Super Beaver.

WE DIDN'T LOOK TERRIBLE FAM!!!!!!
Bro, when will the ACC/Big 10 Challenge give us some goddamn respect?
Never since this is the last year of it.
Apparently never. Gone next year
Drink!
Look at me with the 24 second violation!
Drinking!

Down goes Minnesocold, FAM!
FAM!!! Basile looked better on defense, hopefully he keeps improving. Mutts had another great night.

Good point - there were some bad turnovers from him.
Basile was tougher today. And Pedulla is that guy. Nice to have an easy, no nonsense win.
Good win FAM!
But I'ma need a didn't cover vent thread.
*cries in bad beat*
Pretty sure Ben Johnson had some money on the game. That garbage time press when we put in walkons was bullshit.
Yeah that was some bush league shit.
Our dudes played like they knew that they were the better team.
FAM - I thought we looked more physical tonight. Perfect? No. Better? yes!
Also: Seth Greenberg should probably head to the hospital and have himself checked out. His "excitement" over LOLUVA has lasted longer than 6 hours...
FAM, I'm just happy for the "W" because that other sport was brutal this year FAM....๐คฆโโ๏ธ๐คฆโโ๏ธ๐คฆโโ๏ธ....
FAM to these two as well
My wife would have said no and then proceeded to end my life in the parking lot with her bare hands.
With a mullet like that, what would you expect?
Rob is a good friend of mine, I've slept on his couch more times than I can count. I'm going to give him some ribbing for this one....
When I first saw the picture, before clicking play, I thought the guy would be in the Hokie Bird suit.

FAM! Also, shout out to Coach Pry for sticking around for the whole game and congratulating the players afterwards.
Probably just recruiting Poteat
WTH is a golden gopher anyway?
FAM!
According to LancerHokie a Super Beaver!
LOL. LancerHokie is a her and there is a story behind it. She swears she was just exhausted at the time but I think there was alcohol involved.

Oh I know she's a her...it's in the spreadsheet after all.
So we just pounded the super beavers in her mind?
Yes. That is what happened.
Another W, boys! We're a basketball school!
FAM
I saw that a bunch of times in the highlights saturday night. I'm happy for both the Beamers, but I really don't like that shot of CFB.
I feel like Wally in the Sportscenter commercial when David Ortiz puts on the Yankee hat and Wally comes walking by. Here it is.
It wasn't even as close as the final score would indicate FAM!
+15 in rebounds FAM!
FAM! Felt like somebody was trying desperately to ge the spread uncovered at the end.
FAM - Much better off ball movement this game.
Minnesota full court press with their starters down 20 while we're trying to respectfully run out the clock with our bench and a walk on. FAM
I said it earlier in the thread, but I'll say it again, Ben Johnson took the points and needed to cover.
The Juwan Howard special. Must be a Big 10 thing
Don't you get more points for a ten point + win, or lose more points for the counter side in the Net rankings?
Pretty sure scoring margin was removed from the NET a few years back
Ah ok thanks for clarification
FAM! Won another one we should win, and it looked like we got better doing it. We look pretty good when guarding the castle!
Those refs... We need to get refs that call things consistently.
Those exist?
Nah....you will get TV Teddy and LIKE IT
Got another one! FAM!
