In a Virginia football season seemingly gone awry, Monroe Mills has been a bright spot. Read the new article @Joe_Schwiesow, analyzing his snaps in the loss to Wake Forest. cavalierdaily.com/article/20…

Two things are true simultaneously: 1) Pribula is tucking the ball too quickly and taking his eyes off downfield. 2) The offensive line has been flat-out atrocious and it's hard to remember the last set of downs where Pribula had a clean pocket every play.

Also worth noting the wins they do have are against teams that are either just not good (N.C. State, Delaware) or FCS (Norfolk State). This team has not proven they can win against tough opponents at home or on the road.
Virginia just seems to lack energy, preparation, focus, execution, etc. when away from Charlottesville.

Another TD for De'Shawn Martin. Four on the year for the transfer receiver.

I’m told per Browns sources, tonight would be a huge breakthrough game for Deshaun Watson, who’s been a consummate professional. His relationship with Todd Monken, special. We’re seeing it manifest.

Something from CTE on Martin's pancake block on that 52-yard Courtney TD: “When you see a guy that’s blocking for his teammate, [it] tells you that you got healthy competition in the room … We’re going to need those kind of plays down the stretch.”
Second time they've gone deep to Martin this drive, draws the PI. Thus far this season, Elliott + Kitchings have used Martin very similarly to Trell Harris last year and to how Kevin Coleman connected with Pribula at Missouri. Field-stretcher.

Rico Flores Jr. in the postgame presser: “The game was bigger than me. It’s for the three numbers up top, watching down on us. I wasn’t there for [the shooting], but I feel that because I’m a Virginia Cavalier.”

Grown man catch from Courtney right there. Top three receivers having monster games Flores: 9/113, TD Courtney: 4/89, 2 TD Martin: 4/26, TD + a pancake block Obviously, Pribula is slinging it as well. 21-25 for 264 and 4.
