****Miami vs. Virginia Tech GAME THREAD****

[Genghis Cane]

This basketball team reminds me of the 2017 football team — somehow winning games that they should lose.

We’ve won 20 games even though we can’t shoot 3s and are one of the worst free throw shooting teams in America. It defies logic.

Cant believe this team has won 20 games. It’s next to impossible to win a lot, when you can’t make 3’s or shoot FT’s.

Usually our good defense and our inside game is dominant. Our inside game is almost non existent tonight.

Only down by 3 after playing about as bad on offense as possible.

Just said the same. You can’t live like this in March and expect to win.

This team has all the makings of getting upset by a double digit, mid-major seed in the tourney.

 

[NC_Canes_11]

This game is such a big deal for that ACCT double bye. Ville is gonna lose so you’ll have a full 2 game over them, one game lead and tie breaker over NC State

… we won’t be playing a double digit team in the tourney lol

Projected 8 seed right now. Finish strong and you can get to that 7 line

Pretty sure we’re projected 9 right now but I may be wrong on that.

And I just don’t see this team finishing strong enough to climb. This team just feels destined for a 9/10 seed

 

[jkdood]

wow back at the park 2 run single with 2 out by automatic out Torres in bottom of 9th and its 5-5!

 

[TwentySix]

If anyone needs a pick me up the baseball squad just tied it up bottom 9 after being down 5-0 going into the 8th

I mean they might not continue winning. But IMO you’re 5-1 finish with 1 win in the ACCT away from no worse than a 6 seed. And that’s doable. The only “tough” games are UVA and Ville. SMU is tricky but I don’t think they are an upper tier ACC team. The other 3 *should be* easy wins.

 

[Gables Canes]

Save for the UNC game, this team hasn’t been good at home in quite some time. I really think the lack of energy in that building hurts the team. We look flat and disinterested.

Shame on the fans who made it out. Place sounds like a morgue. Wake up!

Fsu isn’t an easy win for anyone right now, especially us who’s lost 15 of the last 16 vs them.

 

[CaneTheGaytors]

How do we not have one dude that can knock down an open 3 consistently? You can go to almost any Y or gym across America and find one guy that can shoot 3’s better than any of our players.

 

[Genghis Cane]

7 seed and could play a 10.

Also, you never know who you play if you win one game.

Good news is we’re off to a good start here so far in the second half.

Even the student section dont have any energy.. They used to have a hype squad or something right? Crowd is more tuned for a golf tournament..

 

[Cane18]

No worries Malovec is coming in after this timeout

Student section is a joke. The excuse for football games is that the stadium isn’t on campus. What’s the excuse for the basketball games?
