Quite a game
There behind a basket halfway up as well. Game was incredible. Bimbo with 51 and Wally 39. Southern Miss kept answering our scores and by the 2nd OT I distinctly remember the crowd was totally gassed...sound level went way down to to spectator exhaustion...I've never been to a game quite like that one. OH, was also there to see Alan Bristow score 52 in a game in 72'-73'. Two highest scores in Hokie hoops history.

We're averaging 100 ppg. I doubt VT has ever averaged 100 ppg over 3 games**
