UVA not looking like the number one number one yet

No they are not, but I'd still be pretty surprised If they lost.

They can’t hit the broad side of a barn. UMBC’s defense has caused UVA problems. If I’m Bennett I am worried going into halftime.

[bbosbbos]

UVA is overall #1. I will not argue with that.

[dukelifer]

They can be a bad offensive team at times. Right now they look VERY nervous out there. Tough to be the hunted.

[weezie]

I think it's great. Shake this dance up a little.

Who else isn't surprised?

wow UVA about to lose to worst 16 seed. i guess that injury really killed them. there is no absolutely no way they make the final four if they are struggling with his team.

Texas Southern, LIU-Brooklyn and NCCU actually are considered worse 16 seeds by most measures. 😉 And hard to say they're "about to lose" considering it's tied at the half. But agreed that they'll need to improve significantly on that half if they want to make it far. Seems like nerves.

Left Hook Lacey isn't surprised. But this game and any future games aren't over yet. Survive and advance.

Agreed.

Like Barkley said, at some point, you won't hold someone under 70 points. UVA is supposed to win this game, and probably will, but I just don't trust them vs a team like Buffalo, who can easily go on a 3-point barrage.

[jbay201]

buffalo makes it to the final four i believe. going to be fun to see them beat up UK!

[rsvman]

UVa looking a little rattled.

[pfrduke]

Nigel Johnson is having an awful game so far.

UVa looking a little rattled.

More than rattled. If someone does not step up- they could lose this.

[subzero02]

Oy Vey...UVA...

[jbay201]

wow up 7! going to be first seed to lose to 16. big time injury costs teams...ppl always underestimate these BIG TIME IMO. It's college and backups aren't going to magically shine in the tourney after barely playing during the regular season. UVA kept their bench pretty short.

[bbosbbos]

I think UVA will catch up very quickly.

[Bluegrassdevil1]

Let's all take a breath here. A sixteen has never pulled it off. UVA has only lost TWICE. The Wahoos are a strong team.

But...

I am totally okay with being incorrect.

[jbay201]

I think UVA will catch up very quickly.

lol UMBC is up 11! this is awesome i don't even what the school stands for and they have a legit midget on their team LOL!

[YmoBeThere]

This is kind of embarrassing for the rest of the ACC.
