The refs were about to give a tech to the crowd, how lame is that, so we stopped.

Smart enough to get your team a tech. Nice.

Maryland's been on a great roll lately, hopefully they can keep it up. On ESPN last night they had their bracketology guy saying that UMD could get actually get as high as a 4 seed if they go deep into the ACC tournament. That would be some nice redemption for getting screwed out of the Dance last season.

Today we spell redemption "R-O-N;" I mean "T-E-R-P-S."

Thats because everyone on ESPN sweats UMD and Gary Williams nuts. UVA gets no love whatsoever on mainstream sports networks. All this bracketology crap is just stupid. I expect UVA to get a low seed, but I could care less, that kinda stuff is just motivation for us.

espn doesnt like uva because they hate the culture of sports at uva...they called u guys a "wine and cheese crowd" during the comentary of the game, and they cant stand the ties at football games...until that changes i dont know if uva will ever get credit, and i doubt it will change

I could care less what ESPN things about our school, like I mentioned before I don't care what the mainstream thinks about the school. Of course we have no right to talk shit yet in bball and especially not in football. You have to earn the right to do that in the future.

There are plenty of other schools that dress up to football games in the south and they get love from ESPN all the time. If seriously believe the sole reason UVA is accepted by ESPN is because people wear ties to games, that is really ignorant. It's mainly because our major sports programs haven't done much.

If UVA wins the tourney, then everyone on ESPN and mainstream media will start to sweat UVA because they would think its a great classy university with tradition and blah blah.

ignorant? it may not be the sole reason but it certainly plays into it a great deal, with all of the comments ive heard from commentators or personalities, including the guys who did ur last game, colin cowherd, football commentators saying the only guys wearing suits should be in the booth not in the stands. u say u dont care what espn thinks yet u complained about them blowing maryland earlier...hmmm....i dont think im ignorant for saying that as an opinion, a pretty fair one. put on those blinders

Um maybe you misread my previous comments, I am just mentioning the fact that ESPN is all over Gary Williams nuts and that is why the bracketology people keep on talking about them. That is why they get more love than many teams, not just UVA. Plus you are gonna let a couple commentators paint your perceptions about what an entire network feels about UVA? If that isn't ignorant, I am not sure what is.

I never said I was jealous that ESPN blows UMD, check out what I said. I was just saying they did. Like I said before about 3 times, I want people to underestimate us, more motivation.
