Rebounding undoes Cavaliers in loss to UNC

Posted Feb 12, 2012
Though it was a one-possession game at halftime, Virginia's top two point producers had already experienced problems that would soon cripple the Cavaliers. Throw in a nearly 2-to-1 rebounding margin in the second half, and it's no surprise that No. 5 North Carolina was able to give the No. 19 Cavs their worst loss of the season Saturday, a 70-52 blowout after it all fell apart.
