GDT: NCAA Hoops thread
- Thread starter HisIceness
- Start date
My alma mater is one of four D1 teams to have been around since the NCAA tourney started but have never been.
So of course I'm also a Canes fan.

Think you mentioned it once, University of Maine?
W&M. They were so bad my sophomore year that after one game the coach said they had set the game of basketball back 20 years. (They managed to win 8 games that year, but failed to hit 50 points NINE times, including one 36-point effort. They were even worse the next year.)

I once bought a pair of William and Mary basketball shorts while on a trip to Williamsburg. Best basketball shorts I ever owned.
LOL. Did it turn you into a 6'10" 170# center with zero career blocked shots? B/c we had a lot of those!

Auburn and Tennessee are in the top 10. Say what?
Next you're going to tell me Texas Tech is undefeated and on the verge of a top ten spot. Wait what?

Grew up in a small town in VA about 45 minutes from Charlottesville and have been a UVA fan forever. Saw the Florida State game, which was a total undressing of the Seminoles and just saw the score of the UVA-Clemson game. All I gotta say is those boys make it tough to put up points. When you win by 20 and your leading scorer has 14....well it says something.
Lots of people decry their style of play as boring, hard to watch, etc....but it really is pretty incredible to watch them when they're on (losing in the 1st round of the NCAAs to a #16 seed aside). What's really cool is to watch the fanbase CHEER DEFENSE when the guys shut down other teams.
It will be very interesting watching them play the high octane offenses of Duke, NC State, and UNC.

I'm sorry guys, the answer we were looking for is let's go Hokies. You'll still both receive the play at home version of our game just for being contestants.

It should be a fun one. We've managed a few upsets in recent years. It'll be fun to see our efficient offense against the amazing UVA defense.
Absolutely could go either way....just no way to get a read on this one.
