[QUOTE="FloridaMan, post: 1820527, member: 748523"] Can't disagree with most thoughts here. Great weekend for our young team. A little bit of bad to learn from and a whole lot of good experience, plus a top 10 win. I thought Virginia's experience was the difference. I am surprised we did not press some, but I get it in that experienced, disciplined teams are difficult to press and can get some very easy looks if they break it well. The free throw disparity was a killer, but it's partly due to our settling for bad shots possession after possession and not trying to get Dainja more touches down low. I would take a game called like this every night in the B10, despite the non review on the hook and hold and the 5 minute timeout for Virginia for a shot clock review. The more experienced, better team (right now) won. I believe we will be the much better team come March. [/QUOTE]
