NCAA tournament analysis: North Carolina's path in the West Region

The ACC Tournament's Semifinals Round Is Set

The ACC Tournament's Semifinals Round Is Set

Kansas is 27-7 and won the deep Big 12 Tournament.

Beyond Xavier, the South's toughest outs include last year's runner-up, Gonzaga (30-4), which received a No. 4 seed; red-hot MI, the Big Ten tournament champion; and North Carolina, which will open the tournament in Charlotte. Miller and Tony Bennett also used to coach together with Team USA.

"This is a complete group".

The season earned the Musketeers the No. 1 overall seed, but it took them a few seconds to see if they heard right while gathered in an entertainment room in coach Mack's house.

The last time the two teams met, the Cavaliers crushed the Tigers with a score of 61-36.

The semifinal contest proved to have some of the same offensive difficulties for the Tigers, but they didn't get beaten as easily this time as they did in January.

Virginia shot only 37 percent in the first half and were 4 of 17 from inside the 3-point arc.

When Lopez became president, he confidently spoke about his ambition to qualify for the Champions League within a few seasons. Officials from the LFP, France's footballing governing body, are to look into the incidents on Thursday.

Due to the early start of the Big Ten tournament this season, the Buckeyes (24-8) will have a 12-day gap between games before facing the Summit League-champion Jackrabbits. Redshirt freshman guard De'Andre Hunter was crucial in sparking Virginia's 16 unanswered points with his seven points in the half.

Clemson coach Brad Brownell sat in a meeting with Tigers Director of Athletics Dan Radakovich for more than two hours last March and discussed the future of Clemson's men's basketball program and what the Tigers needed to do to return to the NCAA Tournament. Carolina would score just three points over the next eight minutes as Virginia opened up a 58-49 lead and held off a late push with timely free throw shooting.

What it means for Virginia: The Cavaliers are who they've been all year long: the best team in the country. They are the No. 1 team unanimously, and they beat us by 77 points or whatever it was.

UVa sophomore Ty Jerome, who grew up in the NY suburbs, had 12 points, six rebounds and six assists, compared to one turnover.

Salt scored all eight of his points and snatched six of his game-high eight rebounds after halftime.

"[Salt] is all heart", Bennett said. "And he'll do whatever you ask". The game also has sped up, with about four more possessions per team, since the shot clock was cut to 30 seconds from 35 for the 2015-16 season. Defensively, Virginia forced Clemson to turn the ball over 13 times and shoot 20 percent from three. Virginia claimed its third ACC Tournament championship and second in five years under Bennett with a 71-63 victory over the Tar Heels at Barclays Center.

The Tar Heels, the No. 2 seed in the West, will face No. 15 seed Lipscomb in Charlotte on Thursday despite losing 10 games.
