4-1 and first road game win! We really stepped up our defense at the end.

That game was nuts. We were sloppier than a sorority sister at TOTS past 1am in the 1st half. Came out with much more aggression in the 2nd half and tightened up the turnovers. But then Allen got sloppy again allowing GT to get up and I thought the game was over. But somehow Allen brought us back. That guy is a heart attack. He'll screw everything up and make everything ok all at the same time.

Gotta take the bad with the good though especially since it leads to 4-1 in the ACC.

Oh, and fuck those refs. They sucked hard. Lots of calls went against us but in general, they had no idea what they were doing either way.

Ugh. Just inches away from winning that game. Allen's last second 3 touched every part of the rim before spinning out. Sucks to lose but I'm not all that disappointed. It was a pretty good game for the most part. ND just made the extra plays down the stretch. The game turned imo when KJ and Henry got in foul trouble with KJ fouling out. Auguste was having his way to begin with but we had no resistance to anything when they were playing with 4 fouls. They couldn't contest or battle for loose balls without fear of getting whistled and that made the difference late when ND got some buckets at the rim.
