Final Thoughts:
Wolfpack had an 11-point lead, then Cavaliers came back, but the Wolfpack needed some clutch shooting to move into 4th place in the ACC. For the Cavaliers, their shooting was not there. 36 % FG shooting (3-12 from 3-point line). And Cavaliers had turnover problems. 

Wolfpack will visit Atlanta, to face Georgia Tech. While Virginia will head to Winston-Salem, to face Wake Forest on Sunday.
