Leave the Loss in Chestnut Hill

All right, Hokies, climb down off the ledge. We tried to warn you
this was going to be a tough one. We hinted around that BC was a rough matchup,
it was a road game, etc., etc. Am I disappointed? Yep. Does this game mean
anything beyond the 40 bad minutes that comprised it? Nope.

This one hurt, no doubt. Dropping a game to a .500 team (just 4-8 in the
league) is never fun, but sometimes you just lay an egg. A dinosaur egg.

The Hokies got whacked right out of the gate, falling behind 15-2. They
closed it to 22-19, then fell behind 35-20, and after that, it just got uglier.
The final was 80-60, and it didn’t feel that close.

Jeff Allen played just 14 minutes before fouling out, and boy, did the Hokies
miss him — he scored 10 points, so what could he have done if he’d played 35
minutes? We’ll never know.
