It seemed as if the Jackets were going to pull off another ACC win.
Coming down the stretch at McCamish with Jackets leading 74-68 with less than 4 minutes to play #TogetherWeSwarm
— GT Men's Basketball (@GTMBB) January 16, 2016
But, with the help of some Yellow Jacket mistakes, the Hokies were able to hang around until the very end.
And one minute later, it’s a 3-point game. Stop making mistakes, start making shots! Good timeout called by CBG. #TogetherWeSwarm #BeatVT

The Jackets still have a lot of basketball left to play. We get a full week off to regroup before facing a tough Louisville team. The ACC is stacked with talent as always.
