Basketball in Blacksburg

OK, perhaps that title is a logical absurdity.  But the fact remains that the Pack travels to VT today to kick off its ACC schedule.

It never really feels like winter to me until the conference portion of the schedule gets underway.  This year, there was also that little issue of it being warmer at Christmas time than Satan’s underpants.  But today we get the conference basketball, and seasonable temps.  Hello winter.

I would also be remiss if I didn’t point out that the statistical awesomeness of VaWolf82 has also been dusted off and rebooted for your 2016 pleasure.  If you haven’t read it already, you should.  It will explain why many of us are sweating March already, and why in any case, the Wolfpack has some work to do in the next two and a half months.

Speaking of which, it’s difficult to call a Jan 2 game at VT a must win….but with home dates vs ‘Ville and FSU, and road trips to Winston Salem and Chapel Hill in the next couple weeks, this one is about as important as any game against a VT Basketball team ever is.  State needs W’s, and there’s one there for the taking today.

Tip time is 2pm.

TV is the RSNs/ESPN3. (FoxSportsSouth locally)

Time for the Bad Kitteh to go to work

    Agreed on KH. He’s also staying home on defense. Maybe he’s getting it.

    Does Buzz have less neck than usual today?

    It’s still there, that white collar just hiding it. All 3/4″ of it.

    Clemson beats FSU couldn’t see that coming. You just never know. Let’s get this W and get out of here.

    Twins need to be tougher fighting for rebounds.

    I watched s like of the UNC gt game but the announcers were pulling so hard for UNC I had to stop watching.
    We are playing pretty well so far.

    We’re still a work in progress no doubt. But even taking the competition level into account, I’m pretty pleased so far.

    Keys to the last 3 halves of wolven hoops:

    1) Effort (we’ve mostly had that all along)
    2) Intelligent play
    3) A- defense

    LMAO at Abu’s reaction.
    Yay, I finally knocked one down from four feet….next…three feet.

    If our bigs are gonna make FTs, it’s almost unfair.

    Rowan is not going up straight on his shots. Hard to be consistent like that.

    Good timeout. Keep this shit at double digits.
    And also a good time to yell at GFK, of course.

    Abu from the outer edge of his range.

    10 is still good, if a tad sloppy at the end.
