Why Consider Betting on Virginia?
Why should you consider betting on Virginia in this contest? Because the Cavaliers are the far better team in this contest and have a lot to play for. Virginia has won three straight and 18 of their last 19 games including their stunning 66-37 win over Pittsburgh on Saturday. Virginia allowed just seven points in the first half and secured the regular-season Atlantic Coast Conference title outright with a 66-37 win over Pittsburgh on Saturday. “We got off to a good start and we tried to not let up in any way,” Virginia coach Tony Bennett said. The Cavaliers might average just 67.5 points per game to rank an uninspiring 309th nationally, but they also play defense like you haven’t seen in ages. Virginia ranks first in the nation in points allowed (52.1 ppg). This season, Virginia has limited North Carolina to a mind-boggling 49 points in January and held both, Wisconsin and Pittsburgh to 37 points! That’s right….37 points. The Cavaliers have beaten Duke while limiting the Blue Devils to just 63 points and oh yeah, the also held Clemson to 36 points. When you can hole a dozen teams to less than 50 points like Virginia has this season, you can literally beat anyone!Team Statistics
