"Yes Virginia, there is an upset"!

Just remember, Abraham Lincoln was a failure 8 X's in business & politics!

Your players can learn much from this game.

All we can do is wait next year to see if Virginia does not have a so called 9th failure. Nothing is guaranteed in life. They flat blew an opportunity because of overconfidence. IMO. They were the best college team in the country. President Truman also said, "If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen." They will be outside of it, at least until next year.

I'm a bit surprised to have not yet seen this comment on the debacle from Ecclesiastes (9:11):

... the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.

I never did think Virginia was good enough to be a #1 seed. My two teams are playing now--Purdue up 3 or 4 at halftime over Butler.

Don't write naughty words on walls if you can't spell.

I like most sports, but basketball makes me change the TV.

The sad repulsive thing is that VA represented the ACC as the best that we had to offer. I am accepting donations and starting a Go Fund Me page to get the Wahooooies expelled from the ACC. Let them go to the mid-America conference. Maybe they will be stronger there...... They are never better than a 2nd tier team
