hokies down seven. so crucial one-and-one here for jt thompson. given away a lot of points at the foul line tonight. particularly in the second half. he'll get the bonus. >> larry: thompson, not a very good free throw shooter, only 50% coming in and he got that percentage that time at the free-throw line. >> bob: and we've got a bumping foul on atkins. his second. seventh on the hokies, one-and-one coming for dulkys. >> larry: bob, this is the time in the game, you're under six minutes to play right now. you've got to look to the guys that made plays for you all season long. if you look at virginia tech, it's got to be the guards. you've got to look to delaney and hudson. but the guy who has not performed tonight, because he's been on the bench with fouls has been allen. they've got to find some way to get jeff allen involved in the offense. and for florida state, i think they've got to go back to their big people again. they started their second half with a lot of three-point field goal attempts. get away from that and go back down inside. >> bob

and hokies turn it over. let's have another look at the great pass. >> larry: coming off of the high screen right there, the defense of virginia tech came out to challenge derwin kitchen and everybody forgot about down inside. and an easy lay-up down in there. virginia tech was, things swaying a little bit with delaney, you've got play everybody else, but he's got to be the focus of your defense. delaney, really tough on kitchen, he got screened out on last play. >> bob: singleton, baseline, pop shot -- no. gets his own miss. that's blocked. and victor davila pulls it down for the hokies and virginia tech is off and running. 15-footer, shot at 14. kitchen to the trailing alabi. kitchen, baseline -- >> larry: an early indication, we're going to be going up and down tonight. maybe not as much of a defensive affair as i thought. >> bob: great anticipation by singleton and terrell bell. singleton, you talked about it earlier, the physical talents that this young man possesses, he's a rare combination of a big kid

. >> larry: hokies, with big fullcourt pressure after that time-out. >> bob: hokies tried to feed it inside, it's out of bounds to virginia tech. 20 turnovers now for the home team. >> larry: when that ball was on the perimeter and florida state is trying to get it inside, those five guys collapsed so fast. i mean, all five of them can stand there and hold hands. they're so close to each other. >> bob: delaney, six seconds to shoot. >> larry: sometimes delaney puts himself in jeopardy. when he goes down the lane like that and guys aren't open. he puts himself in a bad position the because the big guys make it difficult for him to get his shot off. >> bob: 30-second time-out for virginia tech. florida state again continues to pile up the blocks. >> larry: that's why they lead the atlantic coast conference. they've big guys and have great tiling on anybody trying to take a shot in the lane. the other thing, they get a lot of off-the-ball tries. when a guy is riding the basket. somebody is always coming in from the other side and singleton did it on that particular play. one of that rea

the clock is now becoming a big enemy for the hokies. they're content, larry, to stay in the zone. >> larry: i think they've got to come out of this. they're down eight right now, they've got to come out and get some shots. >> bob: the shot clock under ten now. kitchen and an illegal screen as singleton threw the elbow out, trying to pick off dorenzo hudson and singleton's got four personals.

hokie explain that and what is in the legislation that we pass which is already a piece of legislation that we passed it said after five years there would be someone to make an assessment as to the money that wasn't recovered from the bailout and therefore there could be an assessment made so that we could get all of the taxpayer dollars back. so if we have a narrow margin of what we are talking about simply the money the american people gave to bailout the banks so they get a better and brighter day for tomorrow and is that narrow and we get an accurate account of what it is then it is okay. i don't want to punish the banks on necessarily simply because they happen to be banks. but i do want the banks and i think that he was right to get to loaning money again to small-business is because even in districts like mine they are closing up. if you can't get a loan so that you can make payroll you can't keep doing business and he struck the court and i agree 100%. >> gregory meeks, a democrat new york. thank you so much for joining. here in statuary hall just off the new house of represent
