Almost no coach is going to intentionally foul there -- LXNTN_HOKIE Nov 21, 2022 at 01:29 AM ET

LXNTN_HOKIE • 11/21/22 01:29 AM ET

Analytics prob say foul in that situation when you are the road team -- TheNuke Nov 20, 2022 at 11:56 PM ET

I would have fouled him immediately. They had missed few shots down the -- VT One Nov 20, 2022 at 10:46 PM ET

Agree, our offense seems to be better than our defense. ** -- bhokie Nov 20, 2022 at 10:34 PM ET

Gotta trust your defense. This is a marathon of a season. -- st_andrew Nov 20, 2022 at 10:34 PM ET

CMY should have had Mutts guard Robinson** -- bhokie Nov 20, 2022 at 10:35 PM ET

bhokie • 11/20/22 10:35 PM ET

Absolutely correct, did anyone really think they weren't going to score? -- 39hokies Nov 20, 2022 at 10:04 PM ET

39hokies • 11/20/22 10:04 PM ET

I had a feeling C of C was a team of destiny in that -- LXNTN_HOKIE Nov 21, 2022 at 01:13 AM ET

LXNTN_HOKIE • 11/21/22 01:13 AM ET

We could have done that but MY chose not to and he I definitely respect -- uber hokie Nov 20, 2022 at 08:57 PM ET

uber hokie • 11/20/22 08:57 PM ET

The TV showed 6 fouls for each team.** -- RJHokie Nov 20, 2022 at 08:59 PM ET

You are correct. I edited my message ** -- uber hokie Nov 20, 2022 at 09:09 PM ET

My only question was why leave Poteat on the guard at the top of the key. -- HeisenBurg13 Nov 20, 2022 at 08:46 PM ET

HeisenBurg13 • 11/20/22 08:46 PM ET

Poteat was put on Robinson coming out of the time out. -- NC Hoke Nov 21, 2022 at 01:03 AM ET

NC Hoke • 11/21/22 01:03 AM ET

Give the Robinson kid credit. He made a good move and -- LXNTN_HOKIE Nov 21, 2022 at 01:21 AM ET

LXNTN_HOKIE • 11/21/22 01:21 AM ET

Sure. Mutts got over to help and contested the shot but it went down. -- NC Hoke Nov 21, 2022 at 03:54 AM ET

NC Hoke • 11/21/22 03:54 AM ET

Up by 3 maybe foul them, tied no way. ** -- 1980VT Nov 20, 2022 at 08:37 PM ET

They were in the bonus -- VAHokie89 Nov 20, 2022 at 08:12 PM ET

VAHokie89 • 11/20/22 08:12 PM ET

I though they only had 5 fouls ? -- uber hokie Nov 20, 2022 at 08:58 PM ET

uber hokie • 11/20/22 08:58 PM ET

We had wrong guy guarding one on one; total mismatch** -- SCHokie80 Nov 20, 2022 at 08:01 PM ET

Yeah If it were me, Id have trapped and tried for steal or force them to -- hokiepro Nov 20, 2022 at 07:53 PM ET

hokiepro • 11/20/22 07:53 PM ET

Ideally you play good D and force a 40% chance shot up -- 6thStreetHokie Nov 20, 2022 at 07:51 PM ET

1978vtlspe • 11/20/22 07:50 PM ET

We didn't put the big man on an island, CoC did. That's the whole point. -- 39hokies Nov 20, 2022 at 10:10 PM ET

39hokies • 11/20/22 10:10 PM ET

Good point. -- RJHokie Nov 20, 2022 at 07:47 PM ET
