As much as I respect UVA...


Mar 5, 2018, 1:17 PM

I just don't think they are the type of team built to "get hot" or make a run come NCAAT time.

They look so strong in the regular season but then inevitably get outshot.

I think Duke, Villanova, or Mich St will win it all this year.

What say you?

Agree. They’re a defensive team and can’t score enough. No way they run through 6 games without someone catching fire and out scoring them

Disagree. In years past I would agree due to that is what happened every year.

However, they've got a few more shooters now that can create their own shot. I'd put this team head and shoulders above their other recent teams.

We'll see. They'll have to make me a believer.

Because so far it's been the same old same old under Bennett.

But hopefully so. Would love for the Hoos to win it all over the traditional "blue blood" programs.

Well thats been their problem. They lose in the NCAAT to a


Mar 5, 2018, 1:36 PM

team that can score, or is just really hot that night. But this team might be different. There is something to be said about the way they win close games. They can get the scoring done when they need to. Will that translate into a NC? we'll see i guess

Yes you are right. The style of play Virginia runs has such a small margin for error. It is not the type of style that can win an NCAA championship. The Louisville game was a fluke but they really cannot afford to play from behind against anyone

Lucky, is what it was

Uncharacteristically dumb and untimely mistakes plus bank-shot 3s normally don't happen consecutively.

I think they will lose in the second round but idk. It is impressive to only lose once in the ACC. Idk who will win it this year. Seems to be wide open. Michigan us dang hot right now. I think Duke has the talent but is young. UNC had the ability if Brooks steps up as a big. Nova can beat anybody when healthy and hitting 3s. Mich St has veteran leadership and talent. Graham can carry Kansas with a solid big man and shooters. I think we can beat all of those teams tho on any given night. Cincy is good but can they score? It is wide open this year I believe. Kentucky could turn it on. Florida, UT, and auburn can beat anybody but Auburn is doing down after the injury. Amy ACC team could get hot really. Idk who would win it but it is always a safe bet that two of the final four teams will be Kansas, Duke, UNC, Nova, Mich St or Kentucky.

Not buying Duke. They've had some U-G-L-Y games this season. And yes, I am convinced we would have embarrassed them in LJ if Shelton Mitchell had been healthy.

I don't really watch enough to give a educated guess, but
