It’s another Friday, game day is tomorrow night, so it’s time to look at the tale of the tape between Virginia and the Miami Hurricanes.
Weather forecast calls for a perfect fall evening (clear and a crisp 54 degrees at game time) and the key stats for Virginia are Miami’s defensive accomplishments. The Hurricanes come into the game 1st in the Atlantic Coast Conference in fewest passing yards allowed, fewest rushing yards allowed and fewest total yards allowed. They’ve also had 20 sacks and scored 69 points off of turnovers. The Wahoo offense will be tested.
