All over the map. 18 in NET, 19 in Massey, 22 in Sagarin, 28 in RealtimeRPI

Does UVA rank matter and/or has our chances of winning risen to 1.75%?

Well, Massey says 3% and RealtimeRPI says 13.1% so take your pick. Still 6-1 against at best.

A solid 17 minutes.

It does look like they are playing defense today. Unfortunately, Virginia is just stupidly strong defensively.

However, college basketball is a 40-minute game.

Sadly, our defense has left the building ... outscored 25-4

Don't think that's all the defense's fault..it's still a low scoring game. Scoring 4 points as a team in the first 12 minutes of the second half causes that.

 

Edit: 4 points in the last 5:15 of the first half AND the first 11:24 of the second half - COMBINED. That's 4 points in almost 17 minutes of play. From up 2 to down 24 in that stretch.

Agree.  If you watch this and think defense was the problem?

[McFan]

A 20 minute stretch where we scored 10 points in the shot clock era!!

Honestly, I leave this game actually feeling more positive about the teams chances in the AE than I was before. This team won't face another team anywhere close to this intense defensively for the rest of the year. The best offensive team in the AE isnt nearly as good as Virgina offensively either. They played pretty solid defense and did get a lot of decent looks that would have been wide open against any AE team.

Also, six offensive rebounds is not good when you've missed 36 shots.

I think that's more of a philosophy thing. 

I will start the next game thread sometime tomorrow, don't have access to my PC right now.

Did I hear the announcer say 🥯 instead of Beagle or was it just my imagination?
