This season is a season of near misses…..

Team is playing really well right now but we’re a few games away from not only being in the tournament but a decent seed. We are 10-10 in conference…where are we if these games turn out differently…. 1. Notre Dame on the road 2. Both Miami games (blew a big lead on the road) 3. FSU…winning most of the game and didn’t finish 4. UVA at JPJ—- 8 point loss on a horrible shooting night That plus the USC-E game was a 2 point loss where we led most of the game. Thats 6 games where we had a legit shot of winning. Let’s say we get USC, UVa, and split with Miami and don’t lay an egg at ND? That makes us 13-7 in the league and gives us 2 additional Q1 wins. We have to figure about a way to win on the road. Those were all very winnable games.

I hear you but I'm always hoping a team can make a momentum

The near misses...
GCHokie34 03/10/24 02:50 PM ET
I agree with this completely...
Cvillehoops13 03/10/24 10:38 PM ET
Yes, that's my argument as well.

I don’t get the Miami comparison at all.
Hardcore_Hokie 03/10/24 07:18 PM ET
Miami went from Final 4 to next to last place...
GCHokie34 03/10/24 08:50 PM ET
Okay maybe, but still don’t understand what that has to do with ‘23-‘24 VT

Losing Rodney Rice really hurt. With him available ….

Hokies = 15 / 2

The killer losses for me this year are the ND road game,…
Jackie VT 03/10/24 12:58 PM ET
How many teams could do the same thing?
Pride_and_Joy 03/10/24 12:47 PM ET
2 games could have changed the season.
Gobbler Guru 03/10/24 12:12 PM ET
Yep those are the 2 games that frustrate me the most

…if ifs and buts were candy and nuts
chumley 03/10/24 01:28 PM ET
Yep 3-3 in those 6 Ls puts us easily in the tournament
hokiepro 03/10/24 11:49 AM ET
And that’s the difference between being good and not good. **
Pride_and_Joy 03/10/24 12:48 PM ET
I wouldn't say we are not good **
