I've only seen Virginia play once this year and they looked legit to me. Looking at their record in the ACC says they have to be at least a top 10 team right now. Is there something I don't know about them that should make me rethink that?
UVA has the WORST combined metrics of any team in the Top 25. I know a lot of you dont give 2 shits about metrics but the reality is that every year the teams that make deep runs have consistently been higly ranked in at LEAST 2 or 3 of the 4 primary categories ( offensive efficiency, defensive efficiency, assist to turnover and rebounding ). UVA doesnt stack up. Its nice they are winning but the ONLY category they are good in is defensive efficiency and they are quite BAD in offensive efficiency and rebounding. Simply put UVA cant score enough to beat teams that can rebound well and score in multiple fashions. It has played out almost every time they have played a team like that this year and frankly their ONLY really quality win ( over Cuse ) came against a team that has trouble scoring themselves.UVA ( statistically ) is MORE likely to lose in the first round than they are to make the FF even as a 2 seed.
