The Virginia Cavaliers’ loss to FSU last week likely ended any chance they had of an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. This means that making the big dance will take an ACC Tournament Championship.
Is that possible? Of course. Is it likely? Not by a long shot. Virginia currently ranks T-6th in the ACC, meaning they would have to win four games in four days to win the tournament. That would likely include wins over three of ACC’s top four.
The Hoos have one more regular season game before that happens, against a plummeting Louisville Cardinals squad.
