just saw it on TV....lost by 14 or 15
b-e-a utiful
Game was much closer than that. I'm pretty sure they lost by 9 and had the opportunity to pull within 6 during the last two minutes.
14 or 15 minus 5 or 6...a 9 point thumping

And UT NIA = Not In Anymore with a double blowout!
Better to have been and went to the Sweet 16 than the Quarterfinals of the Not In Tournament [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif[/img]

It's been a while but VT has at least made it to a Regional Final game before in the NCAA.
That's great but wasn't TheSkulls talking about this year?

Why do we just have to talk about this year? In FB you guys like to keep going back to way back when so I figured we could in basketball also.
What year did VT make it to a regional final?
Probably because this is a thread about this year and that is what we were talking about. I wasn't talking about the past.
1967 NCAA Tournament
Mideast
Mideast Region Quarterfinal:
vs. Toledo - W, 82-76
March 11, 1967 - Lexington, Ky.
Mideast Region Semifinal:
vs. Indiana - W, 79-70
March 17, 1967 - Evanston, Ky.
Mideast Region Final:
vs. Dayton - L, 66-71 (OT)
March 18, 1967 - Evanston, Ky.
Oh yes, back when they used a peach basket for a goal and had wooden back boards. Good grief, why do Va. Tech fans hate UT so much? Jealousy gets you nowhere!

pretty weird quote considering this was a thread intended to bash VT

Probably for the same reason UT fans talk about things that happened before a lot of posters on this board can remember or before they had face masks on helmets! [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif[/img]
Are you talking about the last national title, because that really wasn't that long ago was it, oh, 1998. That beats never doesn't it. Oh geez, now we are going to start an all day UT/VT thread were along the way someone will bring up playing at BMS and the Outback Bowl in the 90's. OK, got it covered just end the thread.
Let's just all agree that both of them suck. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif[/img]
How much profanity to get this thread closed?
Ohio State in the NIT finals.
Not quite the NCAA championship game, but hey, it's better than nothing.
congrats on them being possibly the 66 best team in the nation
really? you don't think they're better than 3/4 of the mid-majors who got in by winning their conference tourney?

Sorry for not being able to be in the AEC, SWAC, CAA, or the oh so tough Big South.
The Big Ten may not be the ACC of Mens Basketball, but we know we're a better team than UMBC, Mississippi Valley, and South Alabama.
