Despite Tony Bennett deciding to retire just before the start of the season, life goes on for the Virginia Cavaliers and they'll begin their 2024-25 season on Wednesday against the Campbell Fighting Camels. Ron Sanchez has taken over in Bennett's absence after spending a decade on Bennett's staff and five more years as Charlotte's head coach. Meanwhile, Campbell began its season with a 96-49 win over Pfeiffer on Monday and will now look to deal Virginia an upset loss.

Tipoff is set for 7 p.m. ET on Monday at John Paul Jones Arena in Charlottesville, Va. The Cavaliers are favored by 17 points in the latest Virginia vs. Campbell odds, while the over/under is 128.5 points, per SportsLine consensus.

Why Virginia can cover

The Cavaliers made the 2024 NCAA Tournament but were ousted in the First Four by Colorado State. Under Bennett's guidance, Virginia went 23-11 and Isaac McKneely will be back to lead the squad. McKneely averaged 12.3 points per game as a sophomore and shot 44.5% from the 3-point line.

Duke transfer TJ Power was a 5-star recruit coming out of high school and a top-20 prospect nationally according to 247Sports, so he'll also likely play a major role for the Cavaliers this season. Virginia has won 18 of their last 20 at home and has also won 12 of 13 against CAA opponents. See which team to pick here. 

Why Campbell can cover

Campbell is coming off a dominant win in its season opener on Monday and it was able to empty its bench, with all 15 players on the roster logging at least four minutes. Bragi Gudmundsson scored 15 off the bench to lead all scorers and the Fighting Camels shot 55.2% from the floor.

Kevin McGeehan's squad went 14-18 last season but did go 8-10 in the CAA. The Fighting Camels have also covered the spread in each of their last five matchups with ACC opponents and have covered five of their last six when playing on Wednesday on the road. See which team to pick here.
