Win or lose, and I hope they lose -- people begging for UVA are clueless. :100points:

They have as complete a team as there is, Hunter being the X factor Lotto Pick type guy they've been missing in year's past.

The whole "UVA sucks but sportswriters only suck them off b/c they are white" or whatever is the epitome of basketball idiocy. Do you watch basketball?

Have you watched the last 5 tournaments? F off.

Did you watch the 5 previous tournaments before Nova went on a tear? Before the Zags made the Final 4?

LOL at past tournaments having anything to do with this team, who didn't have their best player. What a Raftardian POV.

How much stock do you put our KState loss to Bruce touching Weber into our chances this year? :joy:

What do you think UVA should be ranked? 8? 30? 72?

Stop going to hen parties, putting sugar in your bourbon, and watch some basketball. UVA is a legit Top 5 team by any measure. PERIOD.

(I have some nice $$$ on UNC tonight, btw)

Well no ****- they’re Top 5 EVERY regular season. It’s been mentioned a million times. Their style makes them ripe for NCAA upsets.

How I see it playing out(regular season only):

No losses - 1 seed in Louisville
1 loss - 2 seed in KC. Possibly the 1 but doesn't really matter.
2 losses - if both to UT then 2 seed in the West. Outside shot of KC.
3+ losses - In the East with Duke. 2 or 3 seed.

Once again, you round goon- what one seed would you choose?

I guess Virginia just gets unlucky every March.

I’d choose UT, Gonzaga, Michigan, or any other option besides Duke (who sucks at team building).

Teams I don't want to play: 1.) Duke 2.) Virginia


Sorry that incites such rage in you, little man.

I don’t think anyone has said they suck because every honk journalist blows them. I think people realize they are good but are also tired of the fawning over treatment they get every year when despite numerous #1 seeds over the last so many years they crash including being on the wrong end of making history last postseason.

Get past the elite 8 for once and the narrative can change.

You're not wrong about Virginia but if the choice is between those two(Zags, UVA), I think KC would be the better option. IMO.

You think this is finally the year Virginia breaks through, fine. Put your money where your mouth is come bracket time, but save the condescending ********. It’s pretty obvious and reasonable why people are skeptical of Virginia.

Honest question. Do you think UVA will even make the tournament? They could potentially have 3 horrible losses after tonight.

Virginia is a great team, but a team more susceptible to upsets than most great teams. Thus, better to draw them as our 1 than other 1 seeds.

I don’t think anyone thinks they “suck”, they just become very beatable in the tournament when teams get 15 TV timeouts, underdogs get hot, and favorites get tight. In a limited possession game getting hot or getting tight can make a massive difference. Virginia’s style just isn’t conducive to long tournament runs. More close games = more opportunities for upset losses.

Still laughing at Forde and O'Neill naming Bennett NCOY when UK went undefeated in 14-15*.

It's a regular season award. But remember how UK only took 5 threes in the Final Four game against Wisconsin.

Oh, I get it. I just think it's dumb to dismiss UVA's relative dominance of the touching ACC for going on 5 years. It's remarkable, when you consider their competition.

Yes, I think UVA makes the Final 4 this year. I really like their team * ingredients....and Mojo. Largely in part to last year's debacle. Calling my shot, save this post, that's fine.

The ironic thing about this UVa team is that they would be an awesome uptempo, jack a ish ton of threes team.

It’s maddening watching them milk the shot clock for a contested mid-range jumper.

Who, outside of the prospect of UNC, has UVA beaten? Va. Tech? Fl. State? K. Defense travels but **** stain offense cannot erase the fact that UVA is not built for March.

Nassir Little is still projected in the top 12 on a lot of boards and has played how many minutes tonight?

Definitely no basketball here, but I wonder if “I want Virginia” is kind of like “Zion is fat and can only dunk.”

Eventually Villanova stopped being THAT Villanova.

What websites do I need to go to in order to see all the UVA love? Bonus points featuring sportswriters who are old white guys. (Seems like most sportswriters these days are woke Kyle Tucker-types who would have an anti-UVA bent because they want to appear more woke.) The majority of articles I see about college basketball center around "Oh my God did you see what Zion did?" stuff.
