The Wake loss was kinda understandable. Stanford loss was just awful.

I think we would have beaten Wake if that game hadn't immediately followed the triple OT win vs UVA. There was bound to be a mental and physical letdown no matter who we played next. I fully expect that the team will beat Wake in the rematch. The Stanford game and the SMU game are the ones that are inexcusable. Two of the worst meltdowns in modern VT hoops history.

TheHokieMan483 • 02/03/26 09:44 PM ET
Wake is going to be a Q2 loss if they keep struggling.....
Jackie VT • 02/04/26 10:32 AM ET
Q2 loss and a loss aginst a team on the bubble like us is bad???**
TheHokieMan483 • 02/04/26 10:40 AM ET
Where do you see Stanford on the bubble?**
Jackie VT • 02/04/26 11:09 AM ET

This upcoming stretch of home games is very important. Need at least 1....
Jackie VT • 02/03/26 08:10 AM ET
Stanford was always awful, gave up a massive lead in less than a minute **
soflahokie • 02/02/26 03:36 PM ET
Pack has been playing better as of late**

Gobbler Guru • 02/02/26 01:12 PM ET
Understandable? Maybe. Bad? Yes.**
marcbvtgm • 02/03/26 02:52 PM ET
Yeah if we are being honest

If losing to 2 Top 100 KenPom teams means youre undeserving
GCHokie34 • 02/02/26 06:21 PM ET
Good losses keep you in the discussion, good wins get you over the hump
soflahokie • 02/03/26 11:14 AM ET
I think VT still has some work to do obviously...

They are now a Q3 loss though. First Q3/4 and I don't see it going away**
hoosnowahokie • 02/02/26 03:29 PM ET
One Q3 won’t kill you. It’s your Q1&2 total they say they look at Stanford
hokiepro • 02/02/26 05:04 PM ET
UNC didn't enjoy that West Coast trip. The fighting Camdens beat them too**
HokieBrazil • 02/02/26 01:52 PM ET
Agreed that they never looked good but the injury..
