This total seems a bit low even for these two teams. Virginia coming off probably the most embarrassing loss in Tony Bennett's reign at Virginia and I expect to see Perrantes and company put up some offense for the home crowd. Miami has guards that can drive the ball which has been a major problem for UVA of late, either scoring, getting fouled, or kicking it out for the 3.
Both of these teams are good from the line, both shooting 71% and I can anticipate there being some fouls in this one as both schools have played several games in the past 8 days. Bottom line is if these two teams shoot any kind of percentage from the field this total should go over. All recent games between the two have been play in the mid 120s or higher. Call me crazy but I think we actually see a mid 130s type game. I wouldn't be surprised if Virginia explodes for well over 70 points after being completely embarrassed on Saturday night.
With this low of a total any outburst of scoring or if refs decide to call numerous fouls in any half, it will be hard to keep the game under.
over 117
