The people who decided tha pairings for the B1G-ACC games should have matched the Iowa McCaffreys against the Syracuse Boeheims.
More than doubled... clap, clap, clap clap clap. More than doubled!

Bad end to the half for Iowa. UVa went on a 6-0 run to end the half.
44-30 Iowa at the half. Gotta think UVa evens this one up a bit in the 2nd half.
UVa is seizing control of this basketball game. You can feel momentum shifting their way. Their crowd is waking up, too.
51-41 Iowa at the under 16. UVa shoots a free throw after the timeout.
Down to a 6 point deficit, 11+ minutes to go.
Lol, I swear you post more about UVa than about Duke, CameronDuke.
We got game.
Iowa wins!
What a game!
What a finish!
I guess with Ol Roy gone, somebody has to step up and start saving timeouts in last second situations.

UVa at home << Iowa with a healthy Murray.

Unfortunately for UVa, Iowa got just enough from their star.
Both teams shot the lights out. In UVA’s case uncharacteristically so. In Iowa’s case moreso than usual but less uncharacteristic. But it was surprising to see UVA’s defense exploited like this.
They made it exciting though. And it was a positive to see their offense look good. But, alas, another loss.
The Cavs aren't great, but man they play hard, so hard.

I don't think it's a bad strategy to push the ball and not let the defense set up. Roy's problem was that the defense would be set up and his offense would have no clue what they were doing and he STILL wouldn't call a timeout.
Clark got a decent shot, he just missed and Iowa made an awesome block on the follow. Great comeback for UVA in the second half even though it fell short.
This team is so insanely inexperienced by UVA standards - excepting Clark nobody that plays has REAL program experience (like more than one season). I'm surprised they seem to be improving at the rate they've shown so far. Based on talent, ceiling is probably 5-6 seed ish. Interestingly, that may be good enough to finish 2nd in the ACC which aside from Duke looks absolutely horrid this year.
BC beat USF 64-49 tonight in non ACC/B1G action.
well, it's already starting poorly for the ACC.
UVa loses on a end-of-game winner.
ND down 13 with 14min to play.
