In Tuesday’s ACC/Big Ten Challenge Action, Virginia nipped Michigan 70-68, Syracuse got annihilated by Illinois, 73-43, Maryland smoked Louisville 79-54, Clemson beat Penn State in double OT 101-94, Georgia Tech fell at Iowa 81-65 and Wake Forest just got by Wisconsin, 78-75.
There was some tension in the Virginia-Michigan game but when it was down to the last minute or so, well, that’s Tony Bennet time. ACC schools know how it works, but for a school like Michigan, you have to see it to understand it, and by then, it’s too late.
This game was tense and interesting throughout but in the end, Virginia did what Virginia usually does.
