If Pitt can play like they did Sat they can beat this team

Its 5 inches of snow at my house calling for another 5. I don't think UVA will have 10,000 people show up. Could be big for Pitt.

I think UVA wins by a bucket tonight in a low-scoring (even by their standards) affair.

Give or take RT @wilson_jasper @BrianBatko 6-4?

Malcolm Brogdon looks like Frozone from the incredibles. I just pray he can find his supersuit in time for the game

I hope the country realizes that my coach will beat Fred Hoiberg in a dance battle that commercial isn't indicative #H2P #JustSaying

Virginia games are terrible.
— EasyMoneySniper (@NelsonKimijwok) February 17, 2015
Virginia is so good at defending ball screens.
— Andrew Fillipponi (@ThePoniExpress) February 17, 2015
This is the best defensive team in college basketball in like the last ten years. Again, this shouldn't be surprising to anyone.
— Gavin Williams (@GavWill13) February 17, 2015
I was ready to make a joke about how Pitt would counter Virginia's D by playing 4 on 5, then Derrick Randall makes a hustle play and scores.

WHERE'S THE SARCASTIC APPLAUSE, @UVaHooCrew ? YOU AIN'T A REAL STUDENT SECTION UNTIL YOU CLAP SARCASTICALLY AT DERRICK RANDALL

BROGGGGIIEEEE

Virginia is putting the moves on Pitt right now!

UVA: Very Good Pitt: not as good. This has been your halftime #Analysis sponsored by Gene’s. Gene’s, drink more beer.

SECOND HALF
So these two teams need to combine for 88 points in the second half to hit the over?

I finally understand what it felt like for teams that used to play #Pitt in the Big East

I can shoot free throws better than Pitt players. No doubt about it
— Stru (@RagingBull_Stru) February 17, 2015
this game is a real throwback to ye olde pitte teams that could not shoot free throws either
— Zach (@CzarOfPgh) February 17, 2015
Down four. /converts to "vs UVA" Down 7 Hanging around. Hanging around.
— The Narduzzi Years (@TheWillardYears) February 17, 2015
Sad thing: if Pitt shoots 50% from the line, they're down 2.
— JD Schroeder (@Sta7ic) February 17, 2015
Pitt makes me pull my hair out
— Trent Nicholson (@Trent_Nicholson) February 17, 2015
welp that about wraps it up for Pitt tonight

Malcom Brogden nasty dunk #SCtop10 #filthy #sitdown

Jamel Artis is doing his best Lamar Patterson impression and Pitt is responding appropriately. (Willing team to win and team not helping)
— Andrew Silberfeld (@Miles_Andrews) February 17, 2015
My middle school basketball team scored more points than Virginia does

POSTGAME: PITTSBURGH 49, VIRGINIA 61
"Thanks fer takin my cawl. Yinz think Pitt woulda won if Dixon could get dat NBA-caliber player? I'll hang up an listen..."
— Chris (@ThunderPittRoad) February 17, 2015
Nice job by Virginia to hold off a plucky PIttsburgh team. Cavs' style is very hard to deal with, especially on the road.
— Seth Davis (@SethDavisHoops) February 17, 2015
nothing says Rivalry Week like Pitt-Virginia and Kansas-West Virginia #onlyonegamematters
