Yes, Santa Claus, there is a Virginia!

Yes, I said it again!

Might sound a little bit cavalier, but we gonna send them home in their speedos just like the last opponent…

GBO!!!

Better chance of Cavs fans dressed like Cavs than Cavs fans in Speedos because the Men’s Virginia basketball has flourished with consistency this century for reaching the Men’s March Madness Tournament.

Without Nate really being a factor, we need to turn this into a rock fight, take away the 3 pt. line to prevent runs, and take care of the damn ball. Sounds like the game plan for most of this season, but not turning it over and getting a shot up on every possession also gives our offensive rebounding a chance to create scores or extra possessions
If Nate isn’t a factor I like Evans in this type of game.We know he’s very capable.We should be in good shape if we’ll play to our strengths and keep our turnovers to a minimum.In beating Houston earlier in the year we have the blueprint to get it done against Virginia. I certainly agree we can’t have many empty possessions in a game like this.

I think you use Nate as a decoy on offense and an extra rebounder but Evans is a sound option, he can move you in the paint. They need to get a shot up on every possession before they turn it over trying to get cute inside. We are probably the most dangerous on offense after getting an offensive rebound. Don't be afraid to shoot and crash.

Just like our last game, I'm feeling overall pretty good about this one. Let's hope the good Vols show up!

Going to request a TV gees changed to TNT.

I’m fearful of a disappointment except still hopeful realistically Tennessee can win tonight in Philadelphia if they play great with making less huge mistakes than Virginia.

Is there any chance Ament leaves everything on the floor and has a historic gut-check performance?

Would be epic
It would be nice to see that. You see players ball out with the flu or an injury. Seems like we never have that kind of luck in a big game at TN.

On paper (er KenPom), these 2 teams seem very similar and evenly matched. This would be the perfect time to clean up the missed bunnies and FTs. One or two blown chances could be the game tonight.

GBO!
