If we continue playing like we have been for the past few games we should definitely have a good chance at beating Clemson and finishing 3rd in the ACC. Back to Back tourney bids (hopefully)... amazing. Bring on Clemson!

I said in a comment earlier this season that I would like to see him get some minutes this year because he's been in Greenberg's system forever, and he's got some good size at the guard position, and now we finally got to see how he fares against ACC starters. I wonder if Greenberg will expand his role or give some of Dorenzo Hudson's minutes to Marcus in the tournaments? I know one game doesn't tell you everything, but Travis seems more prepared to take on ACC opponents than Hudson at this point. Marcus Travis played like a man possessed… he was awesome last night.

His body was at a 45 degree angle in the air, he seriously looked like he was flying! My brother, who is in charge of Hokies on Fire, liked our idea for Deron's best dunk and got in touch with his connections at Cassel, and they liked the idea too and made the Top 10 Deron dunks as a result. Is there anyway we could get that video posted on this site for people who could not make it to the game? That must have gotten everyone going nuts! Obviously Deron liked it too, as he had his best game of the season and another monster dunk! Since the UNC game, the team's confidence has grown tremendously. The last 2 games, we shellacked some pretty decent teams, where as Tech teams in the past would have allowed the opponent back into the game. If we can keep playing on this level, no one can stop us!!!!!!!!! Deron’s dunk was sick!!!! His body was at a 45 degree angle in the air, he seriously looked like he was flying!

You couldn't script it any better. Maybe it's my O & M glasses, but I am now beginning to think that a 10-6 ACC record will get us in the Big Dance regardless of what happens in the ACC Tourney.

As it tands now, the terps are the 5th seed... assuming they beat the hoos, they will play as the 5th seed in the ACC tournment and most likely play NC State... I would love to beat the turtle three times in one year... that would be awesome!! http://www.theacc.com/sports/m-baskbl/acc-mtournament-central-2008.html
