Have a strong sense that our home streak ends this evening....

I can see this game as being tight as it can be. The only question mark coming into this game is Enoch's status. He's questionable with a leg injury. I think FSU wins this one anyway regardless if Enoch is full strength.

Louisville 73
FSU 74

Hope you're right. I've been less impressed with this FSU team than I have with the last 2 years but they find a way to keep winning. Haven't lost at home this year and have the best home record over the last 3-4 years in all of college basketball. A win tonight gives me much more confidence heading into March.

It may be my "old eyes", but it looked like FSU is a whole lot quicker, Louisville was running in mud or they are just worn out. They looked real sluggish.

FSU's quality depth.

We don't have a lot of "great players" but we are loaded with a bunch of good ones.

I think your talent is underrated. I've seen a mock draft with 2 FSU guys in the 1st round. And then Forest and Walker are really really good upperclassmen guards. I hope Walker's injury isn't serious. Also I can see Forest making an NBA roster.

Vassell is ready and lotto worthy, IMO. He's got all the physical tools and is very polished for a sophomore. I think Patrick Williams needs to stay 1 more year. Forest could fit on an NBA roster but really has no developed offensive game. Neither did Mann, but he got drafted and is getting 7 minutes per game for the LAC. Forest and Mann are comparable prospects in many facets.

Unbelievable performance, especially in the 2nd half. The depth of this team has the ability to wear a lot of teams down come March. Like others have said, no real dominant player but a ton of really good players. Vassell is a lottery pick. Forrest can take over a game as shown last night. MJ Walker is a true scorer. Williams is a solid freshmen. Polite is a great defender and showed last night he can shoot it. Much more confident going into tournament season now.

Also, probably think this eliminates Duke from getting a 1 seed even if they win out. Assuming chaos doesn't happen.

The annual Duke collapsing at the end of the season is in full swing. I can only hope koach kourageous has the will to make it the rest of the season.

It couldn't have went better. VT went in a huge hole, dug their way out and took the lead and got their hopes up, only to lose it in the final seconds.

Does that officially make us the 4th seed in the ACC Tournament (don't know how the tiebreaker with Syracuse would go) or would we have to win 1 of the next 3 to make sure?
