The Virginia Cavaliers are ranked #2 in the latest AP Poll, the team’s highest rank since 2015. UVA even received one first place vote from the 65 AP pollsters. #1 Villanova received 63 of the other votes along with 2-loss Purdue picking up a vote as well. The Hoos have not been ranked #1 since Ralph Sampson was on the team back in 1983. To achieve that #1 AP ranking, Virginia will likely need to keep winning until Villanova drops a game. (UVA and Villanova both have 2 relatively winnable road games this week.) But how close has the performance of the two squads been?
