No it's not. Didn't think it would happen because of the officiating has been so bad...#1s always make a run and refs let them back in.
But...this is modern CBB, this is some huge upset especially if one team is going to play old school.
Charles was right this isn't 1980.
3-point shot equalizes everybody.
And you can't play like Virginia, slow down half-court...and dominate in today's game when everyone can nail 3s and erase any deficit in minutes.
Virginia would get 2s and their opponent would get 3s.
Slow big man offense isn't today's world.

quote:Virginia set a new record for most wins in ACC history this year right? I don't think it's fair to make this an indictment on their style of ball.

Virginia was the #1 overall seed. They dominated the best conference in basketball with a 17-1 record. They won every single road game in the ACC this year. They won the conf. tournament which meant they were 20-1 in ACC play. They had the best defense in all of college basketball. They beat 11 NCAAT teams. They beat Duke AND UNC twice.
This was the best single season since UK's undefeated season a few years back. And even then, UVA's season may have been better in light of the fact the ACC was a far better league than the SEC was back then.
In context, it's hard to argue this isn't the biggest upset in NCAAT history.
