Hokie Sports Moment: Quick – Before They Play Tomorrow!

My beloved Va Tech Hokies b.ball team has achieved a level of national awareness nearly unparalleled in their history. Last Thursday, they beat #7 Duke, and followed it up by beating fellow ACC newcomer Miami – no Big Game Hangover here!

As I said in an e-mail to a friend:

“During the Hoosiers/Purdue game Tuesday, Brent Mooseburger was talking up the Va Tech Hokies (can you believe it?). So strange to hear about Tech b.ball in a national audience. Brent was also wondering why no one was mentioning the Hokies as a bubble team; his co-announcer pooh-poohed the idea, paraphrased: "No doubt Seth Greenberg deserves some credit; they've won some key games recently", and then he changed the subject. Translation: "When you lose to teams like VMI, etc., you ain't never gonna make the NCAA". Maybe the NIT, though...”

Kinda puts things in perspective. Next game is at NC State, this Saturday. I wanted to get this blog posted prior to the game. If they were to – heaven forbid! – lose the game, I will have missed my opportunity to brag on my Hokies. They beat the Wolfpack in Blacksburg this season – they can do it on Tobacco Road, too!

Go HOKIES!!!!!
