At one point in the second half, they trailed VT by 21 points.

I think this tournament has shown that it's not exactly a "Clemson" type of thing. Louisville was up big yesterday and FSU cut the lead to 4 or 6, BC was up big yesterday and State came back to tie it, and finally you had ND come back from down big.
Basketball is a game of runs, and with the 3 point line and ACC officials a 20 point lead can disappear in about 2 minutes of game time it seems.

Yep
Tech was looking good and sailing through the 2nd half - then hit a wall. They got a little sloppy on defense, but the biggest problem was that their offense stopped. The announcers tried to make the case that a freakish technical foul against Clarke was the turning point, but Tech lost their edge before that.
The Irish were a bit chippy, so I was pulling for Tech. Certainly, the Hokies let that one slip away from them. I really think that Tech should advance and play tonight since my wife and I voted ND out of the conference before the game was over. They should have never been allowed in to start with!

They could barely get a shot off before that last 12 minutes.

VT had a 99.7% chance to win the game according to the ESPN app with 14:34 minutes left in the game and lost the game by 6.
