Is @UVA a winnable game

[BCEaglesFan]

Va Tech beat them last night on UVA's floor.

[angrychicken]

Yes.

[BCEagles25]

Only if Mike Scott sees Jesus in a piece of toast and decides to drop basketball immediately to become a missionary in Pakistan.

This.

We're going to get pounded. This is not a good road team and UVA is a Top 25 team.

Not saying we'll win, but we won't get pounded. UVA is a slow pace team, which reduces the chance of blowouts and is how we usually play anyways. Moreover, people aren't talking about the fact that part of the reason that UVA got beat by Tech is that they lost a major contributor, Assane Sene, who is not much of an offensive threat but is a good defensive contributor and really gave them some solid minutes of play.

UVA fans talk about Sene the way we used to discuss Josh Southern.

He's been a disruptive force in the lane defensively in Conte the last few years. Not the biggest loss for UVA, but given this team's troubles down low against Wake, I'll gladly take Sene's absence as something BC might be able to capitalize on.

Every game in the ACC is winnable… that’s why we play the games. Every suit of armor has it’s kinks finding them and exploiting them is the tough part. Eliminate those weak entry passes and eliminating their 2nd chance shots is key.

UVA can be beaten as we can see by their record… I take nothing from them they are a top 25 team and they should handle BC. UVA is not one of the projected wins for BC however if BC can move the ball quickly (3-4 quick passes each time down )and play some defense they have a shot at winning this.

In any close game I really like BC’s chances… the pressure will be on the other team not to lose to these guys. BC will cover the spread (again)

/side note/Wake came into the BC game with a do or die mindset. They could not afford a letdown or a loss to BC while BC came into the game with a hey its our 4th game in the ACC mindset. This young squad will make a game of it if they get 4 guys into double figures in scoring.

I'm headed down tomorrow afternoon. I just can't imagine this goes well. We have no answer for Mike Scott.

Take BC and the points... (+18) I think UVA's sphincter tightens up and although beating a top 25 team at this time might be far fetched for BC covering this spread is very doable.

+18? That seems awfully high for a team that has issues scoring the basketball sometimes in UVA.

[claver2010]

BC & the points makes sense but the problem with this team is I can see them keeping it close for the first 30 minutes but they always have a stretch where they can't put the ball in the ocean from a boat.

[wildcat81]

It want be a fastbreak kind of game, which could keep it close.

FYI UVA has held seven teams under 50 points.

UVA 58
BC 44

UVA plays fantastic defense. I wouldn't be shocked if we were in the 30s

No, he's right. I wouldn't be shocked... I'd pick a word higher on the surprise pyramid like "flabbergasted."

Sounds like not just Sene but Joe Harris for UVA could be out tonight.

You should also add, if BC can score more points than UVA they could have a shot at winning.

You all realize UVA is a top 20 team right? 38 is absolutely a possibility.

I still will be surprised if this happens.

[claver2010]

For some reason I thought this game was 8, I know no one cares

thank God this game isn't going into OT

[eagle9903]

stop fouling, crappy bigten programs

[claver2010]

Wow nerds right behind the announcers

[claver2010]

This olor commentator is a fucking dolt, English not his strong suit

[eagle9903]

nice putback

[claver2010]

HUMPHREY SHOT

HUMPHREY SHOT

Seriously, nothing kills the offensive flow like Humphrey.

[claver2010]

Romney to Santorum: U mad bro?

Lolz

HUMPHREY SHOT

Turned on the game late, first thing I see.

[joemack13]

Looking good so far. Lonnie looking a little hesitant to pull the trigger when he should have and Humphrey forcing it, but overall pretty good
