UVa is NIT bound. I just can't see them getting an upset against Duke or Maryland.

We are given "good team" status by ESPN. This is the one bright spot of this article.

This quote is funny:

<blockquote>quote:<hr />After the Cavaliers' most recent loss, 82-80 Saturday to Georgia Tech, Gillen said, "Right now we're having trouble beating good teams."

It's been a frustrating February for Pete Gillen, Keith Jenifer and the Cavs.

Drop one word, and Gillen would have been right on the money. Right now, the Cavaliers are having trouble beating teams.
<hr /></blockquote>They might finish 6-10 in the conference. That's terrible after being projected at having a chance to challenge Duke and Maryland for the top spot in the league.

At least they finally dropped out of the polls last week.

<blockquote>quote:<hr />North Carolina is bearing down on the March 7 ACC tournament play-in game, once dubbed the "Les Robinson Invitational" because of his N.C. State's team tendency to be there. During the Wolfpack's 98-76 victory Sunday against Matt Doherty's Tar Heels, an N.C. State fan held up a sign that said "March 7, 2002 -- Doherty Invitational."<hr /></blockquote>I thought it was funny how even ESPN referred to the play-in game as the Les Robinson invitational.
