How long has it been since we played an ACC team? This would be a very good win. Really big. Can't wait.

We beat Miami in Miami two years ago, I believe.

Going to be an extremely tough game to win as we have the deck stacked against us:

- odds are doubtful that 2 # 1 seeds lose in the round of 32
- if Carolina loses, Virginia is the only ACC team standing and you can rest assured they don't want an ACC-less sweet 16
- de facto home game for VA
- we struggle with their style of play

Just man up and do it Tigers!

All true. But the game isn't played on paper. So as you say, man up. Go get'em TIGERS.

we beat Miami both times that we played them as well. 8-)
Even with that freakish big man that they had. Didn't we do that with like only ONE big man ourselves? Will Coleman?
Someone correct me if I am mistaken please.

My son and I sat next to some old Maryland geezer who kept telling us to "fear the turtle." Priceless.

Dat.B.Me · 03-23-2014 07:23 PM

It amazed me how Virginia lost by 20 plus points against The Vols earlier in the year. I think pressing and Good guard play will win this one for us of course solid interior defense and scoring is also needed.

MGR · 03-23-2014 07:29 PM

Our guys just took the floor.

GO TIGERS!
