Virginia linebackers Charles Snowden and Noah Taylor have been named to the preseason Bednarik Award Watch List, the Maxwell Football Club announced Monday.

One of the things I’m curious to see is the development of the Cavaliers’ running attack. I asked Bronco Mendenhall a couple of times last fall about what needed to occur for his offense to become complete, so they can win games against the best teams his program will face. He didn’t blink with his answer. It’s all about the running game.
