Description
Virginia Cavaliers: A Winning Streak with a Cautionary TaleThe Virginia Cavaliers are on a six-game winning streak, currently undefeated in ACC play, and ranked 15th in the AP top 25. However, their impressive record may not tell the whole story. Advanced metrics like SP+ rank them 52nd nationally, placing them 9th in the ACC. Teams like Miami, Florida State, and Clemson, with worse records, are ranked higher. Virginia's wins have been close calls, including double-overtime against Florida State and overtime victories over Louisville and North Carolina. As they face Wake Forest, Duke, and Virginia Tech in their next games, the question remains: can they sustain their winning streak?
