I get it the tourney committee looks like a black box, and that’s where you’re coming from. But also to be in the tourney you have to beat a few good teams. Tech has those teams beaten. If they don’t get in, there’s nothing to blame but execution. That’s what I’m saying. If they don’t get in, they had their chance, and those two moments were where they blew it. Currently they’re not in. So I’m saying right now undeserving, and can’t complain. Many previous years we had legitimate complaints being bubbled-out. As it stands, they need to do something to get in - to make up for those two games basically. They absolutely can. But it’s on them to make a move because those games were poorly executed down the stretch.

Jackie VT • 02/02/26 10:28 AM ET
Wake is a quad 1 loss and Stanford is a q 2!!!!!**
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
If you look around at lunardi and cbs the past few weeks they have had
TheHokieMan483 • 02/04/26 02:15 PM ET
Lunardi and CBS doesn't have them anywhere near the bubble now.....

Everyone not named "Duke" struggles against UNC

This upcoming stretch of home games is very important. Need at least 1....

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**
turkeywinghokie • 02/02/26 01:36 PM ET
Except against GT at home.**

Yeah that was unexpected but reeled off 4 in a row since**
turkeywinghokie • 02/02/26 08:00 PM ET
We'll see tomorrow night. Play at SMU.**
ancient alien 2018 • 02/02/26 08:57 PM ET
They looked fairly bad at the time.**
marcbvtgm • 02/02/26 11:42 AM ET
The Wake loss was kinda understandable. Stanford loss was just awful.
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
s11rww • 02/02/26 01:25 PM ET
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...

s11rww • 02/02/26 09:41 PM ET
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..

If we don’t make it, we have no one to blame but ourselves**
