2. Virginia at Syracuse

When: February 4

Prediction: 61-59, Syracuse

This could potentially end up being the best game of the ACC slate but because of both teams’ styles. UVA plays a very slow style and Syracuse’s 2-3 zone defense won’t make them move any faster.

I’m most excited about watching Austin Nichols and Isaiah Wilkins match-up against Tyler Lydon and Tyler Roberson. This post match is going to be a really good one because of the length that consists on both roster. Lydon comes in as maybe the top sophomore in the ACC and Nichols as one of the top transfers to enter the conference.

If you like watching the fundamentals and a traditional approach, pay attention to this one. This could be a determining factor in who gets second or third in the ACC.
