So can Duke, the only team in the ACC to beat UVA when the conference was yet to be clinched, beat the Hoos for the ACC tournament title?

Will the refs have a tangible impact on the game in Duke's favor?

If UVA can win, are they deserving of a #1 seed in the tournament?

Is UVA the best team in the country that people still don't trust as a legit Final 4 contender?

What say the MSB?

don't need it. UF is already a lock of the 1 overall seed, regardless of tomorrow. though it will be a great game.

Why? This is the most inconstant year I remember as far as the elite teams getting the job done. Florida is ready to make a BIG run.

I suppose the first question was obvious. If Duke wins, does UVA fall to a 3 or is a 2 seed locked up at this point? I realize the ACC is down this year, but a 3 seed seems harsh given their resume in a traditionally top notch league.

UVA has been in the ACC long enough for you to know the answer to this already

Florida's played a pretty weak schedule and they aren't a good FT shooting team

I've watched nearly every game Duke's played this year and think that they've finally emerged as a true final four caliber team.

That said, they are so paper soft outside of Parker and dependent on outside shooting that any team capable of playing physical ball and scoring consistently in the post will give them fits in the tournament.

As far as tomorrow goes, I think Parker is the difference and Duke sneaks by a very good but not quite great UVA team.
