The good vibes continued for the red-hot Virginia Tech basketball team Tuesday night when the Hokies destroyed Louisville, 75-43, in Blacksburg.
It was Virginia Tech’s ninth win in 10 games, and the Hokies improved to 11-8 in ACC play and 19-11 overall. Remarkably, the Hokies sat at 2-7 in late January and were 10-10 overall. Some delusional part of the fan base wanted head coach Mike Young.
Amazingly, this was Virginia Tech’s first win over Louisville since Feb. 13, 1991. That game was also at Cassell Coliseum, and the Hokies won, 72-56. That was when both schools were members of the old Metro Conference.
