i picked uva to the ff, but they are not beating purdue imo. purdue has better bigs and the best player in that region and probably in the tournament their pg. we’ve already won games at uva’s pace but purdue is capable of scoring 70+ on us in a more traditional game. i think i’ll pull for uva today.
purdue vs uva

Gonna be a good game. I have UVA in my FF as well, but did not have them against Purdue.
I saw Purdue's game against UT, and Purdue absolutely tdestroyed hem with their size. UT had no answer.
UVA has Salt and Huff. Both 7-footers and strong, especially Salt. Neither are very skilled and don't see major minutes.
If Kline and Edwards are on, Purdue's bigs will likely impose their will and get the W.
I also think the pack-line is a horrible way to play Purdue. That team is streaky from 3, but if they are on, they can light it up. The pack-line makes it a bit tougher to rebound and it gives too much space on the perimeter if you don't close out before the catch.
purdue also has two players that are red hot. uva it’s by committee usually.
I think UVA wins but will pull for Purdue. Would love for the FF to be ACC free.
Yeah, assuming we get past Auburn, I'd rather play Virginia. Purdue Is playing scary good right now., and I think that ACC teams are over-ranked & over-seeded in general. (see UNC). I think Purdue will beat Virginia, but I hope I'm wrong.
(edit) And oh yeah, they have that 7' 3" Dutch kid that is mobile and can hit jumpers. How do you guard that?

Advance these refs to the next round based on not calling that flop.
I love watching great shooters make tough shots.
I would LOVE to see us come out like we did last time against Auburn tomorrow. It amazes me how we struggle sometimes making open shots. If we shoot 40% from 3 and 50% from 2, NOBODY is beating us.

Bro we are do to play a good game or two. We havent yet in the tourney. Be nice to finally have three good shooting games here and no one touches us. We have champion quality defense and rebounding...but can we score consistently??
Cline stands at the top of the key on offense and is a bad defender. Virginia doesn't have athletes on the perimeter to attack him.
Big game Bennett melts down again no excuse for us not to make the final
Virginia ain’t scoring enough to win this one
