Here are ten things we learned about Virginia’s football team after its 38-20 season-opening win over Duke:

It didn’t take long for Virginia’s highly touted defense to be tested in Saturday’s season-opening win over Duke.

Davis and quarterback Brennan Armstrong hooked up on a pair of fourth-quarter drives to blow the game open as UVA downed Duke, 38-20.

Seemed all the pressure in the world was on Brennan Armstrong’s ample shoulder pads. While he had played and delivered as a backup to Bryce Perkins the past two years, it was now his show.

While veteran Virginia free safety Joey Blount spent some time in the medical tent after he hit the turf, holding his left knee late in Virginia’s 38-20 win over Duke Saturday night, it appeared after the game that he is OK.

After having to wait a few weeks, Virginia finally opened the 2020 season with a roller-coaster victory against Duke, 38-20, at a mostly empty Scott Stadium Saturday.

Football season is finally upon us in Charlottesville, as the 2020 campaign kicks off Saturday afternoon against ACC rival Duke (4 p.m., ACC Network). The Cavaliers look to make it six straight victories over the Blue Devils (0-2, 0-2 ACC), who are visiting Scott Stadium for the second year in a row, only this time, things will look much different in many ways. After multiple game postponements and cancellations, Virginia head coach Bronco Mendenhall and his staff finally have an opponent in place, and there is actual football to be played against another team. The two schools met with ACC […]

With as many as 17 players returning with at least one start on their resume, this Virginia defense could be really nasty.

Virginia has a secret weapon that I don’t think is going to remain a secret for long. When Tony Poljan lines up at the tight end spot against Duke on Saturday afternoon, he’s going to immediately draw attention from his physical appearance alone.

For those who followed Micah Kiser’s career at the University of Virginia and saw how he was one of the ACC’s top tacklers each season, it came as no surprise that the former Cavalier linebacker was named NFC Defensive Player of the Week on Wednesday.

Injury has struck Duke’s secondary, as the Blue Devils announced they have lost two starting cornerbacks indefinitely just days before traveling to Charlottesville to open Virginia’s season.

After learning the ropes the past two seasons from a couple of guys who are now playing on Sundays, Virginia junior receiver Billy Kemp IV is getting his chance to shine.

Wayne Taulapapa, who improved as the season progressed in 2019, is back at the starting tailback spot. He’s backed up by Towson transfer Shane Simpson, who was a consensus 2018 All-American in FCS play, and by sophomore Perris Jones, who has played special teams.

After practicing for 12 weeks and having somewhat prepared for five different season-opening opponents, Bronco Mendenhall is holding his breath that his Virginia football team will actually get to play a game this Saturday afternoon against Duke.

Duke football coach David Cutcliffe has seen just about everything across his storied coaching career. You name it, he’s probably experienced it.

Virginia football coach Bronco Mendenhall revealed the Cavaliers’ depth chart for Saturday’s season opener against Duke on Monday.

With Brennan Armstrong named Virginia’s starting quarterback a few weeks ago, there have been questions launched at both offensive coordinator Robert Anae and quarterbacks coach Jason Beck about what roles transfer Keytaon Thompson and true freshman Ira Armstead might play in the Cavaliers’ offense.

Brennan Armstrong fits nicely into the role of Virginia’s new starter. If there are any questions about Armstrong’s abilities, then experts on UVA football should calm the nerves of its followers.

The Atlantic Coast Conference announced Thursday that Virginia’s postponed road football game at Virginia Tech has been rescheduled for Saturday, Dec. 12.

Fuente said Monday that he felt it was necessary to reach out to Mendenhall after last Saturday morning’s postponement.
