Now, I want the rest of the teams in the ACC to lose

I think we can beat Virgina. I think this time around the outcome will be different and we can shut down their boring defense easier than they can shut down ours.
 
I would definitely prefer to play Iowa State. But if Virginia wins, I won't be too upset and that's still good for the ACC.

In other words - just beating Gonzaga is all I really care about.

Right and pretty much from here on out we will have to play very well to defeat whomever we play. That's the nature of the tourney the deeper you go. If its VA then so be it, we played them pretty well for 35min at their place.

What is a "boring defense"? If you said "boring offense" I'd say that's logical.
I recall betting on SU + 9 1/2 when we played at Charlottesville in the snow-delayed game in January. Malachi R hit some ridiculous 3's in the last 3 minutes to pull us from down 13-14 to a final margin of 8. I don't recall the second half being close after the first 7 or 8 minutes. The problem with SU taking on the Va. D is you have to hit a lot of 3's. It seems that TC bombing away at his 30% clip is not a good recipe. Really need to have TC take a back seat to Mal, G, and Lydon.

Do you actually watch our games? It was a 3 point game with a minute to go.

Did you watch Sunday? Who played better? Cooney or Malachi? Did you know their 3pt% is the same on the year?

Yes, G and Lydon are our two best players in that order.

I actually meant boring offense.
