This uva season is resembling the Hokies’ season of 2 years ago more and more. A bubble team beats a highly ranked duke team at home – check x 2. They then lose 2 straight games to follow – check x 2. Tech’s bubble burst 2 years ago despite 2 wins in the ACC Tourney, and you have to think uva is staring down a similar fate with a home game vs maryland to close the regular season and then the ACC-T. uva’s RPI was in the 60s already (just like VT’s was) and is sure to drop.
Oh, and Michael Snaer is the most clutch player in basketball, the anti-Lebron.
