Ugly single digit win, but I'll take 1-0

1/1/2016 4:34:50 PM

I picked us to lose in the score prediction thread. Just have a feeling we come out completely flat following the holidays and Buzz comes up with a good game plan to slow down Cat. Hope I am massively wrong and the team pounds the Hokies.

1/1/2016 5:26:22 PM

We better win this, I will be massively disappointed to start off conference play with a loss to Va. Tech.

1/1/2016 11:44:16 PM

It is an ACC game on the road. Not gonna be that easy.

1/2/2016 7:53:17 AM

Losing this game would be Doeren-esque

Don't be a Dave, Gott

Doeren has never lost to an inferior opponent. Losing to unc duke miami etc would be doeren esque but not vt. Noce try though.

1/2/2016 1:01:08 PM

Doeren would lose this game by 50

1/2/2016 1:07:21 PM

that's because Doeren is a baseball coach, silly.

1/2/2016 1:34:32 PM

Dennis Smith on our bench today.

1/2/2016 1:46:37 PM

Doeren loses all the toss up games that really should be wins

This falls directly in that category

1/2/2016 2:03:08 PM

Wth channel is this on DirecTV? I'm getting weird errors about some or all of the game not being recorded

1/2/2016 2:06:15 PM

Is that the quickest turnover in history?

abu plays like a guy who picked up a basketball for the first time his senior year of high school

1/2/2016 2:21:24 PM

God I love watching Cat play

1/2/2016 2:23:35 PM

Is Blackshear for VT the same guy from Louisville?

1/2/2016 2:24:57 PM

anybody got a stream for this? I'm blacked out in SEC country.

1/2/2016 2:26:54 PM

stream?

1/2/2016 2:27:21 PM

It's Martin

1/2/2016 2:36:07 PM

this is not a tossup game. we are playing one of the worst teams in the conference.

1/2/2016 2:37:02 PM

Need to stop their momentum

[Edited on January 2, 2016 at 2:39 PM. Reason : There we go cat]

1/2/2016 2:38:52 PM

tell me more, e man. can we get a breakdown of their recruiting rankings relative to wake forest football?



[Edited on January 2, 2016 at 2:40 PM. Reason : fucking busted image]

1/2/2016 2:40:08 PM

For reference, we were 2 point dogs to VT in football. 5 point favorites against Louisville and 5 point dogs to Miss State.

1/2/2016 2:41:55 PM

vt hoops is more comparable to where we are in football. a program on the rise but they just haven't had enough time to catch up with a well established program like ours.

[Edited on January 2, 2016 at 2:45 PM. Reason : even though basketball programs can be built twice as fast. ]

^lines are not about talent. We overachieved in terms of program perception and made people think we were on the same level as a mississippi state. thats an achievement in itself but was premarture

[Edited on January 2, 2016 at 2:46 PM. Reason : thats what happens when you go toe to toe with the best]

1/2/2016 2:44:41 PM

Gott showing why he's a good coach, unlike someone we know

1/2/2016 2:45:42 PM

That's a tough foul to swallow there for VT. Looked like Abu fell.

[Edited on January 2, 2016 at 2:47 PM. Reason : .]

1/2/2016 2:46:50 PM

i didn't realize there was a rivalry between basketball and football at our school. i tend to be a fan of nc state in every sport.

Seriously?!?! 3 on 1 break and you don't give the ball to CAT BARBER??

1/2/2016 3:39:43 PM

^yeah really

Nice foul they missed on that "block"

1/2/2016 3:49:37 PM

sloppy as hell

1/2/2016 3:50:48 PM

I really love when that one Martin twin thinks he can take over a game. Keep bricking those threes.

1/2/2016 3:51:31 PM

AND JUST LIKE CLOCK WORK

As soon as ACC play starts, refs swallow the whistle.

Lol what in the flying

1/2/2016 3:52:57 PM

How many of our set plays include out of control drives?

1/2/2016 3:54:41 PM

welp

1/2/2016 3:54:58 PM

I just got a chance to turn it on in time to see us to lose a 13 point lead, but why do we keep trying to slow it down when our half court offense looks like it blows today.

1/2/2016 3:55:35 PM

yeah these are all gottfried players. buzz williams is in year 2 only. if you think vt has peaked you are crazy

1/2/2016 3:56:00 PM

My loss prediction is coming true. Way to blow a 16 pts lead state lack of bench depth is going to kill us this year

1/2/2016 3:56:21 PM

He's an ok coach.

Nothing program though. Fringe tourney team ceiling type...
