Maybe you thought the Virginia men's basketball team doesn't deserve its No. 21 national ranking or that the Cavaliers' impressive 3-0 start with wins over mediocre teams was just a fluke.
And I admit, I too was skeptical. I was an unbeliever. I thought the Cavs wouldn't come away with a win in last night's matchup with Purdue, the same well-coached team that beat then-No. 1 Arizona over the weekend.
Sure, we saw the Cavaliers defeat Long Island, Coastal Carolina and Virginia Tech by an average of 33.6 points, but was Virginia really a top 25 team? Could they play in the ranks of Duke and Maryland come early March?
