Virginia @ FSU Tonight

[What Would Jesus Do?]

UVa is looking pretty invincible these days. But this road game and the one at Miami next week look like the best chances for someone to upset them.

Should be a good game of contrasting styles.

Who've you got?

FSU's only home loss came against Louisville 4 weeks ago.

UVA

 

[Tru Blu Tar Heel]

UVa until proven otherwise.

 

[dadika13]

FSU is the kind of team that usually gives UVA trouble though. They have a TON of length.

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

I expect UVa to win because they have just been relentless.

But if FSU wins, it won't exactly be a shocker.

 

[MRUNC]

We nor anyone else is going to catch UVA but we need Florida State to lose.

 

[BillyL]

Cavaliers are only 3 pt. favs in this one . .

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

22-16 FSU

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

29-18 w/6 left in the half

Yep and it looks like I took the bait.

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

Can UVa speed up enough to close a gap like that? If they do speed up, can they play well enough to close the gap?

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

32-22 FSU at the half.

I knew they was good but they are really really good best team in the country no question!

 

[TarHeelMark]

FSU just can’t get out of their own way. They are talented but you can usually count on them to make some boneheaded decisions.

 

[notashelbyfan]

Nova is in trouble!

 

[TarHeelMark]

FSU doesn’t make a FG in the last 9 minutes. Holy crap

 

[TarHeelNation11]

Yep and it looks like I took the bait.

Nvm, I covered.

BTW: Vegas has NO CLUE how to set the over/under in Virginia games. The o/u was 130.5 tonight and the Under hit by 16.5 points lol. Happens all the time with Virginia. Vegas should set Virginia game O/Us at 115 permanently.

A guy on twitter said a UVA under 120 points at home and 125 points on the road has covered 87% this season.

UVa is very good. I expect the Hoos to finally make the Final Four. Their defense is suffocating and their team play is special. As of right now, I don't know what team is capable of beating them.

Yeah, I'm thinking this may be the year.

The last few years they have been proving they aren't a fluke. I mean pretty much every year we would say "sure, they were good, but with so-and-so gone and a mediocre incoming class, they won't be able to keep it up." But every year they did keep it up.

Now the question is whether they can go deep into the NCAAT. Most schools never do - probably because there is so much really good competition at the top.

I think Nova, UVA, Purdue (even with last night's loss) are a class above everyone else this year.

And only two players on their roster were in their top 50 recruiting class.
