I'll type it up in some observations at some point (tomorrow hopefully)

But there were times in which it was as bad as I've seen VT play in the last 3 years. It was very confusing from a feelings perspective. The response they had to getting beaten down low was incredible. But they also didn't need to "respond" they're capable of simply playing that way. They didn't defend particularly well, they didn't outshoot their opponent, it was a bad matchup on a neutral floor. They lost the rebound battle. And they won. By 3 possessions. Over a good team. It's the best kind of win this early in the season. There is a lot of film to look at and show WHY they're getting beaten in certain ways, but also gives them a boost of confidence to show them they're capable of more

No_Limit_Hokie 11/23/23 10:30 PM ET
No, will be bad if they play that way against ACC competition**
HokieRat 11/23/23 10:12 PM ET
BSU would be a solid ACC team
GretnaHokie 11/23/23 10:18 PM ET
You're of the opinion Boise State isn't as good as the ACC?**
GCHokie34 11/23/23 10:13 PM ET
Very much so.**
HokieRat 11/23/23 10:15 PM ET
They're ahead of Wake Forest and other ACC teams...
GCHokie34 11/23/23 10:19 PM ET
Let me know at the end of the season. 4 game NET ranking tells SO much
HokieRat 11/23/23 10:22 PM ET
We are beyond the point where last season comes into play**
GCHokie34 11/23/23 10:29 PM ET
Hey man, change your narrative when you want. Either a team's past season
HokieRat 11/23/23 10:39 PM ET
They were 10 seed in last season’s NCAA tournament. They also made
Femoyer74 11/23/23 11:12 PM ET
What narrative?

I get the aggravation but I don't think we
VTMONEY94 11/23/23 10:50 PM ET
That's a more than fair opinion to have...
GCHokie34 11/23/23 10:55 PM ET
CMY is a great coach for this program and I want to see his teams succeed
VTMONEY94 11/23/23 11:01 PM ET
Very much appreciated and I enjoy talking basketball...

GCHokie34 11/23/23 10:20 PM ET
this board was a little fansville styling **
MaroonMark 11/23/23 10:10 PM ET
I still say Fansville was created by Bill Walton, on way too much weed 😊**
No_Limit_Hokie 11/23/23 10:33 PM ET
Anything change on defense or did they just play better?**
GretnaHokie 11/23/23 10:09 PM ET
They doubled the post...
GCHokie34 11/23/23 11:01 PM ET
Boise State was still getting into the lane. It missed some layups
VAHokie89 11/23/23 10:13 PM ET
I thought we were more aggressive defending those layup attempts.**
RJHokie 11/23/23 11:11 PM ET
