In desperate need of a win to keep their tournament hopes alive, the FSU team started as hot as they had all season, scoring on the game's first seven possessions. 

Noles Fold Against Virginia Tech
Florida State Basketball got off to a terrible start, allowing VT to drive the lane and dunk on their first possession. However, Dwayne Bacon hit on FSU’s first possession from long range which was a welcome site and the Noles were off and running.

Seth Allen emerged from the locker room and went right to the scorer’s table with 4:44 to play, bandages on the cuts above and below his left eye.

Virginia Tech bounces back to finish off 83-73 win against Florida State behind 23 points from Seth Allen. It was a celebration that seemed highly unlikely early in the second half.
