Virginia keeps finding ways to survive and advance finally making it to the NCAA Title Game after losing to a 16 seed last season. A key injury takeaway from the game was Tariq Owens who is a huge factor on defense and got seriously banged up last time out, landing awkwardly on his ankle and hyper-extending his knee, he'll play but on short rest definitely won't be 100%. Matchup-wise, Virginia has the skilled big men
UVA just held the hottest three point shooting team in the country to just 29% on 9-31 shooting, the 5th most efficient defense in the nation

Virginia has beaten some monsters in this tournament, Auburn, Purdue, Oregon and Oklahoma - all were playing unbelievable coming into this game. I think Texas Tech will be on for a monumental let down after that Michigan State game and I think this is a bad matchup for them and I think Virginia gets it done tonight and gets the Championship.
