The Retrievers will need to play a near-perfect game, but the offense is going to need to be good to start. The Cavaliers are a great defensive team and the Retrievers need to figure out a way to solve it.
If they can get out to a fast start it might give them enough confidence for the offense to have success.
Virginia Cavaliers
On the other side of this matchup is the Virginia Cavaliers who use their defense to have success. Coming into this game they are giving up only 53.4 points per game.
The offense only averages 67.5 points per game, but when the defense is that good, it doesn’t really matter how much the offense scores.
