    You know what's nice about missing a ton of shots? When you have a 7'1" guy who can track so many of them down. Enjoy your post-game discussion!

    Great game by Z. The whole team finished strong and didn't back down to the usual antics by the Hokies.

    Would like to think the ACC would suspend Hudson for the swipe at Nolan. Just because it wasn't a punch and didn't hurt him doesn't mean he didn't intentionally swing at his face.

    Big win! We kept our composure and fought through the garbage. The 3 Nolan hit at the end was better than a slap in the face to the jerk Hudson!!!

    I'm pretty sure it's government designed, probably by the Russians

    It gives me a warm feeling in the cockels of my heart.. to be able to feel good about Zoub. He has been an absolute monster these last 3 games. Zouberman!!

    That last 3 by Nolan was a bigger punch than Delaney will ever be able to throw. Give em hell Devils!!

    I love this team.

    It wasn't Delaney - it was Hudson.

    And I think Hudson's just mad that Nolan's much better than he is.

    Glad to get the win. Another gutsy effort from the guys. The plummeting production from the Plumlee's is really starting to worry me though. Mason's line was 6 mins, 3 fouls, 0 pts, 0 boards. And it was worse than the numbers. Miles didn't do much better. I hope these guys are just in a bit of a slump and can get some confidence back before tournament time!

    This win was great. Why is it that the VT games always turn into slug fests? I hope we don't meet up with them in the ACC tourney...they just play dirty.

    Gutsy win against an underrated team. Would have liked to see more than 4 points from players whose last name does not begin with S, though. But I'll take it.

    I think part of it is that they don't get too many touches in scoring position. They get frustrated and try to force plays, resulting in dumb fouls and forced shots.

    When they were playing well, they were getting fed the ball on occasion.

    An excellent peformance by the starting 5. 63 of 67 points by the S's, Zoubs continuing to emerge as a defensive and rebounding force. And a great job by Lance of playing the last 10 minutes or so with 4 fouls and continuing to be a presence on D.

    If we can keep the starting 5 on the floor, this will be a hard team to beat. VT was better than anticipated, this was a solid W.

    Big Win

    On a night we looked tight, and probably the pace of the game and the physical nature of it, tended to impact our shooting, we still won. A LARGE part of the win can be attributed to Zoubek, who rebounded, altered shots, set good screens and played solid all around defense. Good to see the improvement he has made continuing game to game.

    I think all but 4 points came from the big three.

    Thomas, Zoubek, Scheyer, Singler and Smith is a very effective lineup. The Plumlees and Dawkins didn't add much and Kelly looked a little better while in there. We need the subs to find their games soon. The bigs just need to watch Zoubek to see what it takes to succeed.

    I would think the MOTM is between Singler and Zoubek

    Hudson should have been T'ed up, but that's it. His semi-punch was no different than Laettner's semi-stomp.
