Beating Ohio State at a neutral site would be a confidence builder for the tournament. Thatās about a 6 seed caliber opponent. Need to play well and win that
Hoping for some deeper cuts. Would love to see Sammy Zeglinski out there. Teven Jones would be cool too, as would Atkins or Jontel. Evan Nolte is a must (I think heās in DC).
VCU game in 2018 was a scary storm. Took me 5+ hours to get from JPJ back to Richmond. Was supposed to be like 2 inches and ended up being a foot.
Iām starting to think weāre as good as the numbers say we are and weāre gonna roll most of these teams. I kinda like us to beat Duke now too.
Max 4 losses from me, but I think 3 is very on the table.
Man a lot of talk about the schedule down the stretch in here - Am I the only one who wants to absolutely murder Carolina? Maybe its just because I work with several delusional tarheel fans but I want to mop these guys more than anyone else we have left on the schedule. Presently not worried about anything but this game
I want us to mop VT by 50 but otherwise UNC is second on my list for sure
Beating Duke @ Cameron is what Iād love to see the most on our remaining schedule. But yeah, of course, would love to see us mop up VA Tech and UNC as well
I have a feeling we are gonna get one of the best versions of this Carolina team. Ready for a dog fight.
Iām nervous about the break on our side and the pageantry combined with a little desperation from UNC.
Thatās where I stand. I hope the team isnāt overlooking this game.
12 months ago most of our rotation may have struggled to find Virginia on a map but they wouldāve known all about the UNC brand. I think this one is circled on the calendar no matter what
Odom grew up in Cville and graduated high school in Winton-Salem. If thereās one game that dude will have his team ready for, itās UNC.
We can talk about breaks being bad and being worried about cooling off but after that stretch we just had Iāll gladly take a week to recover and think ONLY about UNC while they have a road game today and two days to recover. Just hope they win tonight so theyāre not coming in desperate.
I think theyāre in Chapel Hill tonight, but otherwise agree. One week is not like an exam break, so Iām not worried about rust, and a chance to recover from injuries and work on weaknesses before a big game is probably an ideal situation.
And yeah, Iām not worried about Dave Odomās kid not being up for UNC.
Not a fan of a week off before playing anyone esp a UNC team desperate for a big win
Another strong showing for Malik in this one pretty much guarantees him freshman of the year right?
UNC struggles with quick guards.
Tough ask of Chance but would love to see him pressure the defense. Not sure where Jacariās handle will be, but heās another one.
The break wonāt be as bad since weāre in January and the team is gelling.
Seems like a fair amount of worry in here about UNC. Of course, anything can happen but yall..theyāre not even a good team right now and weāre hitting our stride in a lot of ways, and weāre got em in JPJ.
Weāre going to stomp them and itās gonna be awesome.
UNCās defense is putrid and our offense is top 15 on KenPom. We might score 100.
