Today's winner is Virginia over Maryland. This is my No Limit.

Virginia has taken 4 straight over Maryland including a 80-69 thumping on February 10th. The Cavs have notched 16 straight victories at home, outscoring visitors vby 19 PPG . UV ranks at or near the top natioanally in four defensive categories . They allow a mere 54.5 PPG overall, but when at home, Virginai yields a mere 48.9 PPG, winning their L16, with a 15-1 ATS mark. When facing the ACC at home, the cavaliers are 8-0 SU and 7-1 against the number this season. On the boards, they rank as one of the nation's best at +7.2 RPG. Joe Harris will light up Maryland as Mitchell, Anderson, Nolte, Tobey, and Atkins will own the paint. Maryland lost 4 of their L7 SU and ATS. Alex Len has bee the teams only rebounder and he is erratic at best. Len ceratinly does not have the physical prowess to compete with Virginia's fron court. The Terps lost 80-69 three weeks ago to the cav's . Len is only one of two players that are barely eking out DS. the Terps are 4-10-1 ATS their L15 games played on the road, and 1-7 ATS their L8 vs. teams with a winning percentage of over.600. The cavakiuers are 16-4-1 ATS their L21 games played at home and 9-2-1 ATS their L12 games played against teams with a winning percenatge of over .600. Take Virginia. Thank you.
