ALERT. TRAP GAME AHEAD.

Everyone is amped up for Saturday's showdown against Syracuse. But there's still work to be done before then for the Hoos.

This is the first of three straight road games for Miami, who next travel to NC State, then Clemson. Offensively, Miami is led by senior guard Rion Brown, who has a team high 15.0 points per game. He is supported by Garrius Adams with 10.2 points per game. Adams has now gone eight straight games scoring in double-digit figures.

A win tonight would not only extend Virginia's win streak to 12, including the program's first 15 ACC-win season, but it would also give Head Coach Tony Bennett his 100th victory at Virginia.

UVA has lost seven of the past nine to Miami, so by no means should Cavaliers fans take this game for granted.

Leave your pre-, in-, and post-game thoughts here and as always, Go HOOS!
