How far can Virginia go in the tourney?

I'm a little biased as UVA is probably my favorite team to watch this season. I think that they are Final Four material. Best defense this side of Arizona, balanced scoring, depth and experience. They are great at taking other teams out of their normal offensive rhythm and preventing them from playing the way that they want to play.

i love their freshman PG London Perrantes. He doesn't have gaudy stats but makes great decisions - 3.68 A/TO ratio on season, 4.67 A/TOR since conference play started, and 5.43 since 3rd game of conference play (had one of his worst games of season in 2nd conference game vs Wake). On season, 32 steals vs 34 turnovers.

If i had to pick Final Four right now without having brackets, seeding, etc., i'll go: Florida, Michigan State, UVA and Louisville

Second tier: Michigan, VCU, Arizona, Wichita State

Dark horses: Saint Louis, Oklahoma State, UCLA, Tennessee

Cant believe people say they are a 3 seed.Should be a 1 if they win today,2 if they lose.Thoughts?

Should absolutely be a 1 seed if they win. If Duke won the ACC regular season title and Conference tourney, they would be an auto #1. They play great team basketball and have senior leadership.
