Yeah, this last 5 minutes thing is a head scratcher.

Don't think I ever remember a team melting down so many times in crunch time in the course of a season. Would be nice if coaches could figure it out before Miami. It's such a huge game, must win, quad 1 win too. It would be a shame to go down there and do it yet again.

Thats not the point. We do it consistently -- Wild Turkey 02/24/2022 09:15AM

Maybe the players are just not good under defensive pressure? -- MVIII 02/24/2022 09:25AM

It's not Mike Young, it's college basketball coaches in general. We saw the -- UEMcGill 02/24/2022 09:23AM

Yeah, this last 5 minutes thing is a head scratcher. -- NC Hoke 02/24/2022 03:20AM

Not really, we have a limited bench & the guys are gassed late in games... -- BROman Hokie 02/24/2022 08:18AM

Is that still an issue? It was earlier but then -- NC Hoke 02/24/2022 4:04PM

Agree. But the bench contribution on both -- GreenvilleVT 02/24/2022 10:05AM

It's not the missed shots that bother me. It's the lazy passes . . . -- HokieKip 02/24/2022 08:26AM

We don’t have a limited bench, we have a coach who refuses to play them -- soflahokie 02/24/2022 08:25AM

I agree 1000%. I have been saying most of the year that more bench... -- Hokietech 02/24/2022 12:28PM

It is to me. -- NC Hoke 02/24/2022 4:41PM

GT doesn’t apply ball pressure, they run an extended 1-3-1 -- soflahokie 02/24/2022 08:29AM

They can run it as an agressive trap style zone .. that was the last 5min -- ShockWaveVT 02/24/2022 1:59PM

Actually.. a little of both -- hokietom87 02/24/2022 09:59AM

We reverted to being the "bad" Hokie team last night, and thankfully... -- EDGEMAN 02/24/2022 05:50AM

Offensive flow was like Jan again -- Vienna_Hokie 02/24/2022 07:10AM
