VT is probably on the same bad level as BC.

Thinking a close loss with the score in the 50's. Hopefully we learned our lesson with Pierre Jackson because otherwise Green will go nuts. The guards can't go under the screens

this is a game BC should win, and NEEDS to win in order to gain confidence going into the rest of the ACC schedule. VT is one of the worst teams in the ACC, and BC needs to beat teams like that to have a successful season in year 2 of this young team.

I agree at least to the extent that if they lose they are creating a very difficult mountain to climb with the rest of the schedule.

This game is important for not being the worst team in the ACC. I'd like to see BC get a rare road victory, and hopefully by the middle of the season stake claim to the top of the bottom of the ACC. High expectations, I know!

i think right now there are 3 teams worse than BC. Clemson, Wake Forest, and Virginia Tech, i hope i am right. this is a HUGE game for BC, it could set the tone for the rest of the season.

Us facing 4 of 5 on the road was why the moral victory cries annoyed me on Saturday.

This is very much a winnable game and if this team has hope of moving towards the middle of the ACC it's a must have. Last year we should've won at VT (last second offensive rebound and putback IIRC).

We are a better rebounding team, but Cadarian Raines can do damage. I say if we don't give Eddie and Green second chances, we win by 5-10. BC has gotten torched by some good guards, so we'll see.
I like BC basketball.

VT is terrible, if we avoid the 2-22 game we should win.

The most notable thing was Clifford on the offensive end. That was alarming, he simply can't jump

The defense is so much better.

The shooting is bad. Could we make a jump shot please?

Lately Lonnie Jackson's penetration has been somewhat impressive (or at least better than the zero factor that I thought it was). I'll still never understand shooters who can't make FTs though.
