At 10 minute mark, it is a defensive struggle. Va leads 16-12. Both teams have been called for 4 fouls each.

Why is this on the Mighty Rice Owls board? Post elsewhere or clue me in on why RU fans should care!

If you follow basketball, you might care!

So clue me in.

It is #2 team (Va) vs #4 team (Duke) Interesting because it is a low scoring, defensive struggle

I get it, No upper limit, Rice BB some time in the future (as in the past, 70s Knodel teams) will make the tourney and needs to be aware of the possible speed bumps!
Thanks for posting!

Va wins 65 to 63 over Duke. both teams started scoring in the second half.

does our transfer to Duke get any playing time ?

No he didn’t play - Sean Obi is no longer with Duke - he transferred to Maryland where he has the 11th most minutes played this year (88)...and a nice win by UVA holding the highest scoring offense in D1 nearly 30 points below their season average.

Nice take on why the game matters to all college basketball fans - real college basketball defeats NBA minor league: https://campuspressbox.com/2018/virginia...asketball/
