The Big Preview: UVA basketball looks to get right at North Carolina

Over the past two weeks, the Virginia Cavaliers have plummeted in the advanced metrics, falling from 13th on KenPom all the way down to 34th. That is despite winning three of four games during this stretch. The problem is that Virginia played poorly against bad teams, definitively not dominating the way they should have.

That, of course, culminated in a loss on the road to Boston College. A road loss in conference isn’t a big deal, those games are always tough. But it was the way they lost. It was shooting 4/21 (19%) from downtown, but also going just 15/38 (39%) on twos.
