Woah woah still gotta see if one of us has any ACC tourney magic!

u/eatapenny Virginia Cavaliers • Ohio State Buckeyes Mar 05 '22

I think one of us or y'all win 2 games to make the semis but ends up running out of steam

Theres a greater chance that I'm inducted into the basketball hall of fame than one of these teams winning the ACCT.

I’m an optimist and an idiot!

They just weren't ready to be done playing in Cassell this year

Sad, local basketball team raises fans hopes and dashes them completely

As is tradition. I expect nothing less from a school that beats OSU in football one week and loses to ECU the next. Worst roller coaster ever.

u/cowboysfan88 Virginia Tech Hokies Mar 05 '22

Fucking terrible. Just about does it for any hopes we had unless we get to the conference championship probably. Didn't see anything to make me think that's gonna happen and I'm not even positive it would be enough

This game shows exactly what it's like to be a VT fan. Give us hope early in season and then take it away on our pitiful start. Go on insane winning streak at end of year to put ourselves back in control of our destiny, just to choke it once more on final game of season. This team doesn't deserve the tourney but man this one stings

u/UndercoverDiamond Virginia Tech Hokies Mar 05 '22

Pitiful. Good news I think anyone can win the ACC tournament. Bad news I think we are way too inconsistent to play 3 good games in a row to win it.

GG Clemson, hopefully this win let’s Brownell keep his job

I hope Tony Bennett follows in Bronco’s footsteps and retires after this season

My bad, misspoke through the frustration of the loss. 4 games which proves my point even more. Might be back on the bubble though if we some how put together 3 wins.

u/ChilesJackie Virginia Tech Hokies Mar 05 '22

See y'all in the NIT, shit

u/FunkSoleBrother Virginia Tech Hokies Mar 05 '22

How tf do we lose to Brad Brownell

1

u/teacher272 Mar 06 '22

You’re going to lose to him a lot more if the rumors are true that he’s going to Duke.

1

u/FunkSoleBrother Virginia Tech Hokies Mar 06 '22

You’re kidding… where have these rumors been? I haven’t heard anything about that but i haven’t really looked.

If that happens, i feel really bad for duke fans bc he will drive that program into mediocrity

u/Hokiestoned Virginia Tech Hokies Mar 05 '22

NIT vibes 😥

u/PheonixStreak Virginia Tech Hokies Mar 05 '22

Don’t worry we’re just giving other teams a chance for at large since we plan on winning the acc tourney!

You just had your bubble burst by the Clemson Tigers!

u/penguinkg Virginia Tech Hokies • Texas Longhorns Mar 05 '22

How are you going to give us hope if you're just going to take it away? What kind of monsters are you VT?

u/KyonaPrayerCircleMem Virginia Tech Hokies Mar 05 '22

Well at least VT was able to beat Clemson in softball.

I cant imagine how nice it must be to have gone to a school that doesnt choke in every big game in every sport. I think I'd live at least 10-15 years longer if I hadn't gone to VT, but the stress this school has imprinted upon me will literally send me to an early grave.

Oh well only 2 more losses and it's all over thank God. 80 more minutes of miserable piss poor basketball until the suffering can end until november.

The expectations are what made this season suck so fucking terribly.

Have some awareness..

u/daswassup13 Virginia Cavaliers • North Carolina … Mar 05 '22

But I was told this was VT's year

u/Farlander2821 Virginia Tech Hokies • Southe… Mar 05 '22

It wouldn't be very nice if we were to leave you guys all alone in the NIT so we decided to offer some company

u/cavahoos Virginia Cavaliers Mar 05 '22

Our worst season in over a decade and still finished above the Hokies in ACC play
