FSU Comes From Behind to Beat Virginia 69-67


Tonight Lulu and I went to see FSU play Virginia. With a record of 1-3 in the ACC - it was not a very big crowd at the game. About 15 minutes before the game - I held up two fingers - and a nice fellow handed me two free tickets - not a bad start.

We got inside with about 5 minutes until game time. The announced attendance was 7400 - but there were plenty of empty season ticket holder seats.

Florida State started out in the hole as UVA went ahead 12-2. It looked like a very bad night. Our team looked tired and lethargic. We managed to inch ahead by 1 point at the half.

As the second half started - we again fell behind by 9. It looked like the season was ending early for the Noles. With about 6 minutes to go - the breaks starting going for the boys - and we won by 2.

I know it was only Virginia - but a 2-3 ACC record looks so much better than 1-4. On Saturday - NSCU is here for a 1:30 game. With a little luck - the Noles could be 3-3 in the league.

FSU must at least play .500 ball in the league to go to the NCAA playoffs.
