Virginia on Tuesday saw their NCAA Tournament dreams dashed in brutal fashion. Fans made sure to add insult to injury after the Cavaliers’ unceremonious exit.
Virginia lost 67-42 to Colorado State in their First Four showdown at UD Arena in Dayton, Ohio.
Virginia’s offense was completely abominable throughout the contest, but particularly so in the first half.
The Cavaliers scored just 14 points and were held completely scoreless in the final nine minutes leading up to the halftime break. They managed to double their scoring output in the second half, but still ended up getting outscored 40-28.
Disgusted fans weren’t afraid to roast the Cavaliers for their scoring futility.
Some fans wished that other teams such as Indiana State or one of the snubbed Big East squads had made it instead of Virginia.
