A ton of nerves in the last second freebies.
Virginia should've started fouling down 12 with over 3 minutes left. You have to extend these games as much as possible.

Jim valvano and north Carolina State perfected this back in the day. They would start fouling with 3 or 4 minutes left in game. Did this to perfection on there way to the national title. I think they trailed by nine on average in every game leading to the national title.

It's scary watching the better team of 38 minutes lose this weekend. We need to put them away better the last few min

Look at that, they spread the floor, get the ball in low, and pick up a foul - free throws please! What a novel idea... plus they ate up an extra 10 seconds!
