(AP) -- The last time it faced Syracuse, surprising Virginia stormed to its second ACC regular-season crown with a one-sided victory over the then fourth-ranked Orange.

While they haven't snuck up on as many teams this season, the No. 2 Cavaliers are hoping to repeat history as they look to lock up the program's best record through 29 games Monday night at the Carrier Dome.

Malcolm Brogdon finished with 19 points, five rebounds and five assists to lead Virginia to a 75-56 home win over Syracuse last March 1 that clinched the school's first outright league crown since the 1981-82 season.
