If Tech fans do what we are capable of we can make the ACC Tournament

feel like a home game. No reason that VT shouldn't be the most represented fan base by a mile especially if the team is still on a roll at that time.

UVa has 28 home games.**
hokietony • 03/02/26 01:45 PM ET
Yeah and their OOC SOS will suffer because of it**
RVAHokie05 • 03/02/26 03:44 PM ET
Our SOS will take a huge hit if our aim is to host more OOC games
RVAHokie05 • 03/02/26 03:21 PM ET
Blackberry Winter is what we called it in Bristol region**
TomTurkey • 03/02/26 03:24 PM ET
Not much different than Harlottesville. data inside**
UTPr0sim • 03/02/26 02:27 PM ET
Now do February - not a huge difference, but enough. More snow chances.**
VT_AD • 03/02/26 02:32 PM ET
oh I would NEVER schedule an out door sport in the Burg in Feb. **
UTPr0sim • 03/02/26 02:36 PM ET
Somebody needs to research the UVa schedule. What are they doing that
laphroaig • 03/02/26 02:19 PM ET
Blacksburg is about 5 degrees colder, and I kind of like the competition...
jesuisvtguy • 03/02/26 02:44 PM ET
RIght now they are playing lesser teams at home (although they did play
Nortazhokie • 03/02/26 02:26 PM ET
Look at the Massey strength of schedule component
VTChip • 03/02/26 03:07 PM ET
DSR has our SoS at 8
hokiepro • 03/02/26 04:02 PM ET
Yep.**
Nortazhokie • 03/02/26 03:17 PM ET
A 74 point difference. Being a retired math teacher has benefits.**

SHPHOKIE • 03/02/26 04:02 PM ET
And TWO Invitational tournaments?**
TomTurkey • 03/02/26 02:22 PM ET
Need to host invitationals - that added 10 home games.**
VT_AD • 03/02/26 02:21 PM ET
It's been said our weather that time of year isn't co-operative enough.**
laphroaig • 03/02/26 02:22 PM ET
Always perfect in Hoosville
TomTurkey • 03/02/26 03:22 PM ET

"Fake stuff" has to do with the rain but doesn't matter in the cold.**
laphroaig • 03/02/26 04:58 PM ET
I think they hosted 2 invitationals
VT_AD • 03/02/26 02:14 PM ET
Even then that's 5 more home games than VT. Almost 40% more home games
laphroaig • 03/02/26 02:21 PM ET
Those Salem games should be at TSP - that would help
VT_AD • 03/02/26 02:29 PM ET
In the last four seasons, VT has played all three of Radford, Liberty, and.
Bentwood Apartments • 03/03/26 12:03 AM ET
Yeah I know they've played them, but I said consistently**
VT_AD • 03/03/26 08:34 AM ET
Not sure I get what you mean by consistently. In each of the last four...
Bentwood Apartments • 03/03/26 11:22 AM ET
Wouldn't care if we played Radford 3 times for more home games even if they
laphroaig • 03/02/26 05:01 PM ET
I disagree on the Salem games being at TSP
VTChip • 03/02/26 02:57 PM ET
I guess my pt was addressing what could be done to add more VT home games**
VT_AD • 03/03/26 08:34 AM ET
In terms of RPI, don’t the Salem games count as neutral, which would be…
Bentwood Apartments • 03/02/26 11:53 PM ET
You are correct! That’s another good point!**
VTChip • 03/03/26 12:09 AM ET
Not to mention for a 30 minute trip down the road
HokiefromBedford • 03/02/26 06:49 PM ET
Neutral site is a good point**
VT_AD • 03/03/26 08:36 AM ET
The Salem tournament should be quite the event this weekend.
Raleigh Hokie • 03/02/26 04:02 PM ET
Sounded like a professional broadcaster to be on ACCNX**
TomTurkey • 03/02/26 02:16 PM ET
We're 3 of them**
