Message: [QUOTE="Powellfan, post: 3749247, member: 4819"] MVP, for me, should go to Phaup, kid was terrific the entire game, even though some of those face offs were absolutely grueling. One of the single best defensive performances I have seen in some time, guys were absolutely flying and playing like their hair was on fire. The term “they wanted it more” gets thrown around far too much, but in this case it was absolutely true. Even late in the 4th quarter they swarmed Virginia players who shrank from the action. Hope they can keep this level of play up. Lots of flack for Scanlan but I thought he made one of the nights biggest plays - uva had the ball to start the third quarter because of the botched man up opp, but he forced a quick turnover on the ride and SU quickly scored. Really felt at that moment Cuse could pull it off. He’s strangely struggling with the short stick, but have to imagine it’s just a matter of time before he figures it out. [/QUOTE]
