Good game!

Don't know why we can't employ UVA's defensive philosophy...it's the best in the game IMO...

They just can never score...

Very good game to watch - both teams are playing hard on defense. The help on defense is very impressive - hard for either team to get an uncontested shot. Both teams look ready for a deep March run. And i would add the refs have been very good too.

It's hard for me to buy all-in on UVA. They're good, don't get me wrong, but their style is hard to win with for four straight games....and that just gets you to the Final Four.

The Cavs don't have a single alpha on their team....and that hurts when you need a basket.

Yeah the problem is they can never score much....at some point you are going to have to score pts. Somewhere in the tournament...

My point was their defensive philosophy is elite....year after year..

Imagine if Duke could play even half of that philosophy with our offensive firepower year to year...

Virginia led by 10 with under seven minutes to play. They scored 10 points the remainder of the game....with most coming from a freshman, who going into today was averaging two points per game. UVA is really good and capable of beating anybody....but it will be nearly impossible to win six in a row with that style.
