The Virginia Cavaliers basketball team has continued its dominance this season.
16-0. #1 in the coaches’ poll. #1 in KenPom rankings. #1 in the NCAA’s new NET rankings. The Hoos have won 12 of their 16 games by double digits. The Cavaliers have had 20-point second half leads in all four ACC games so far. They lead the entire country in scoring defense, 3-point defense %, and least turnovers per game.
Most impressive of all is how much time Virginia has spent leading opponents. The Hoos have only trailed in the second half once out of 16 games, a thriller against in-state rivals VCU.
