If Buffalo scores at the end of the half, they have a chance to go up 28-10 because they get the second half kick. That basically takes Henry out of the game and makes it next to impossible.

Henry is basically out of the game already. It must be the frigit cold because Buffalo just has no issues with the weather. This game is where it's at due to the fumble by Lamar on the bad snap. They were in position to go up at least 10 to 7 when that happened.

Not only was it a fumble but it was perfectly picked up and ran 50 yards. There's been two dropped passes by the Ravens, one that would have been a big play.

Nevertheless, it's the same thing each playoff season. The Ravens simply don't perform at the level they do in the regular season and they just can't get the breaks the other team does.

Sooner or later it will eventually line up perfectly for Lamar in the playoffs, because he's just so damn good, and he's such a determined competitor.

Defense - not good. Yes, too many bad shots. However, when good shots were taken they just couldn’t make’em. Va Tech also shot lights out.

What i found to be disheartening was the team just didn’t look ready to play. Go bask and watch - instead of plays sharply making cuts and moving with purpose - they dragged ass. I could have guarded them today. Just looked lazy and uninspired.

Totally agree. They were not focused or determined. They were going through the motions, which has me thinking things are not so swell in the locker room. Could be the coaches or the players but there seems to be a lack of effort to improve.

North Carolina State blew us out at home and I watched the Virginia vs North Carolina State today and Virginia almost beat them in North Carolina today. We have a tough road coming our way.

Virginia just earlier this week beat this Virginia Tech team, so there’s no doubt that next game at Virginia will be tough for this UofL team.

North Carolina State blew us out at home and I watched the Virginia vs North Carolina State today and Virginia almost beat them in North Carolina today. We have a tough road coming our way.

We won the boards because Va Tech shot 63% they didn’t have to rebound. I really don’t remember us getting very many 2nd chances after a missed shot.

Nice 4th Quarter effort, but this team is really challenged offensively.

Probably best they do lose because the winning streak apparently has them thinking they're better than they are.

There are 4 quarters in this game and we only played one and unfortunately that wasn’t enough. We won the 4th quarter so where were we the first 3 quarters?

Well, if Tech is going to continue to shoot 63% from the field, we have no chance. We’re only within shouting distance of this team because we are destroying them on the boards 27-16. Only one made 3pter for the good guys in this one so far, too.

I hate to say this and I hope I am wrong but with 4 minutes left in the 3rd quarter this game is already over. This team needs to do some soul searching because there is very little effort to go after rebounds or loose balls. When you’re not shooting well the only you can do is play good defense and go after the ball. Unfortunately this team is not doing anything except running back and forth going through the motions.

Thanks BooneCo_Card. The guys doing the broadcast didn't really get into that. The morning CJ failed to do so also. Anyway Ron King Louisville Central comes to mind although I have forgotten why he chose to play at FSU.

Shoes and crab. 😂

Hard to believe, but Williams, Roberts, Randolph and Berry combined for 1 of 12 FGs in the first half. Not sure any other D1 college women Team in America could have shot any worse if they were trying to miss on purpose.

Some poor shot selection for sure, but you can almost expect hitting “the back of the rim” even when getting open looks regardless of where they took their shots. Conversely, VT shot 54% in that same half.

Down 7 At the half but it seems like 20. Our half court offense is really struggling if we could get some rebounding we could get our transition game going. We look bad against a very average team Inhope the 2nd haftis better.

Down 9, 6-20 from the field w/8 turnovers mid way through 2nd Q. I don't know what we are trying to do with our half court offense.

I like z Liz Kitley but let’s get back to the ball game.

Why? I'd rather look at Kitley than this Louisville offense.

Even during this streak, the offense just hasn't been good. This game they don't even look focused. Missing bunnies and wide open 3's. VT doesn't look any better than the teams Louisville has beaten during this streak, but when you can't score, you're not going to win.

Walz has to be as perplexed as he ever has been.

I guess it is good that they have spent almost the entire 2nd quarter focusing on Liz Kitley instead of the ballgame because we look absolutely awful. We look like this is our first game of the season, no offense, no rebounding, no defense we have gone backwards.
