What's this?

Wow...ESPN's Bubble watch guy was giving us a chance before yesterday...


..amd now he seems to have soured as well...

Virginia Tech's probability of playing in the 2022 NCAA tournament is still relatively low, but it would be zero right now if not for Darius Maddox. The 6-foot-5 sophomore hit a 3 at the buzzer to give the Hokies a 76-75 victory in overtime over Clemson in the ACC tournament second round. Mike Young's team is either on the "first four out" or "next four out" list depending on the forecast, and now Tech will face Notre Dame in the quarterfinals. Even a win over the Fighting Irish may not be sufficient by itself to lift the Hokies all the way into the field. Still, thanks to Maddox, this is still an open question. (updated March 9)

  UVA moved up and Hokies down in Lunardi's bracketology after wins yesterday -- lowcountryhokie2 03/10/2022 08:04AM
  UVA has some quality wins.. now just need to hit a magic # of total wins -- ShockWaveVT 03/10/2022 09:31AM
  IMHO it is a spot that doesn't really matter in the scope of things -- VTCALS72 03/10/2022 09:11AM
  Just win- fun team to watch- just play ** -- bigbadbird 03/10/2022 08:56AM
  Considering Louisville has played a lot worse recently than Clemson ** -- hoosnowahokie 03/10/2022 08:38AM
  I wonder if he has connections to the committee -- VermontDDS 03/10/2022 08:20AM
  He's trying to catch up with the sharps....a lot of guys don't have us NEAR -- JoesterVT 03/10/2022 08:15AM
  Wow...ESPN's Bubble watch guy was giving us a chance before yesterday... -- JoesterVT 03/10/2022 08:20AM
  I said a couple weeks ago we needed 22 wins. Still do. ** -- hokieZ71 03/10/2022 08:36AM
  We're 17th in Palm's list of Bubble teams...I don't get teams like Xavier.. -- JoesterVT 03/10/2022 08:41AM
  Indiana has three Q1 wins. -- Chris Coleman  03/10/2022 09:47AM
  Q1 wins... -- Diehard Hokie 03/10/2022 11:46AM
  Are you suggesting it's not an anti-VT conspiracy? :) ** -- NokieHokie 03/10/2022 10:32AM
  Do you think playing 20 conference game hurt the ACC -- VermontDDS 03/10/2022 09:56AM
  Yeah, I had that thought last night. -- Chris Coleman  03/10/2022 10:11AM
  Yeah, but getting the league to change is like pulling teeth -- JoesterVT 03/10/2022 10:01AM
  I guess I misunderstood....I thought the NET ranking sorted all of that out -- JoesterVT 03/10/2022 09:55AM
  I don't think Q2 matters all that much, TBH. -- Chris Coleman  03/10/2022 10:16AM
  I think the committee really does not care whom among about 18 teams get -- VTCALS72 03/10/2022 08:49AM
  They have a lot of bigger wins over higher level teams earlier in the year -- hokieZ71 03/10/2022 08:48AM
  Fair assessment. I think we need to make the final to be a lock. -- Maroon Baboon 03/10/2022 08:30AM
  Yeah...been saying that too...3 ACCT wins gets us better than fiddy-fiddy ** -- JoesterVT 03/10/2022 08:32AM
  Agree. It will be tough to do, but if we can beat both ND and likely UNC -- lowcountryhokie2 03/10/2022 08:54AM
  I mean a game with UVA the odds would likely be even.. ** -- lowcountryhokie2 03/10/2022 08:55AM
  VT would be favored -- deathrow821 03/10/2022 09:22AM
  You could be right, although I respectfully disagree a bit :) ** -- lowcountryhokie2 03/10/2022 09:27AM
  No -- deathrow821 03/10/2022 10:06AM
