Virginia Offense: Back from the Dead? UPDATE

Monday, February 01 2010 by Ben

You'd think so.  I'm not sold just yet.  After a lackluster performance against VT (although, my hunch is that, were I to crunch the stats, Virginia would have averaged well over 110 PPP at the 4:58 mark of the second half of that game. They were terrible thereafter.) , Virginia came out and thumped UNC on Sunday night.

Does a great game against a mediocre Carolina defense exonerate them?  I doubt it.  Let's see how they fare against NCSU on Wednesday.

Anyway, here's the updated chart people were clamoring for:

Hey Ben,

Think you're right about the VT game - the 4:58 mark and all. I would say though, being in the yellow zone is alright with me compared to what we were last yaer. Finally, it looks like we found a coahc that actually COACHES. What a novel concept.

Any chance you could put that chart together for last year as a comparison? I'd like to see a side by side.

Just remember that I was first to use a graph in a write up.. Seriously though. It is interesting that you are really focusing on our offense. I notice the diference in our defense. While you are the Bball guru and your stats do show the dfference in wins/losses, I can't help but love to see the improvement of our defense. Not to mention the improvement of player skills. Something I have not seen since I have been a UVA fan (1997). I can't help but wonder what Travis Watson would have looked like with coaching.
