Louisville head coach Kenny Payne acknowledged the Hokies’ dominance in the second half, stating, “They took the fight to us, especially in the second half. They’re a well-coached team, hard-fighting team, and hard to beat at home. I thought we did a lot of things well, but at critical times I just thought we made mistakes. Especially in the second half, they shot 48% and made 19 of 23 free throws. To me, that’s the game.”
