Uh, so yeah, that just happened. The Hokies managed not only managed to win, but they simply outplayed their Charlottesville rivals in a 70-68 thriller. By winning tonight, the Hokies remain undefeated in the ACC, already matching their conference win total from last year.
1. So here’s something: the last time the Hokies beat the Cavaliers was on January 22nd, 2012. It’s been 1,442 days since then. Needless to say, that’s a long time. Although they are a young team, the Hokies had already had enough with it. It was time for them to make their mark on this rivalry, and they played with that kind of desire tonight.
