The Virginia men's basketball team suffered neither a post-Thanksgiving nor a post-Island letdown Friday night when Green Bay visited Charlottesville. In fact, the Cavaliers led by double digits for nearly the entire game en route to a 68-42 victory against coach Tony Bennett's alma mater.

While the lopsided score gave UVa a 5-1 start to the season, there were enough hiccups along the way to be thankful that it's still November on the season calendar. The Hoos committed 13 turnovers and allowed an 18-8 half-ending run from the Phoenix after dominating the game's first 11 minutes.

"The defense was real good early and they got to the paint about three times in a row to where they made that run at the end of the first half and we had a little trouble. They really started attacking the paint. I challenged them at halftime to regain their defensive edge and their ability to keep the ball out of the lane and I think they did a pretty good job," Bennett said. "."

Indeed, the Hoos' defensive prowess to start the 2011-2012 season continued as the 26-point margin of victory proved substantial. Green Bay became the fourth team on the schedule to fall short of 50 points, joining Winthrop (48), South Carolina State (38), and Drexel (35) in that club. No one has reached 60 points yet against the Cavaliers.
