anyway. run defense is winning this game for the Hoos so far - play calling much better as well. CBs the weak spot
I’m typically pro-colorful-turf but I just can’t with this one. It’s also just close enough but not quite exactly the same color as the jerseys and I just hate it.
so they noted Coastal's new media production school in the first half and now I'm thinking that's who they've got actually producing today's coverage
i can’t watch because of kids sports(marching band). i am happy to see the score. wish we didn’t have to settle for the field goals
and it was fucking awful. entire 1Q the PBP guy's mic was crackling and snapping loudly. cameras were shaking like they were in an earthquake and angles were terrible. there's a fan who livestreams the local HS football team on Facebook and his production values are of equal or better.
looked (again) like a team with some depth, some direction in a game plan, and just...generally competent haha. add in a little UNC and VT meltdown posting and this morning reading my stories I'm like
there are 6 Offensive Lineman in Rival's VA top 40. VT has two committed there and another uncommitted kid listed as a lean(no UVA offer), and UMD, Clemson, and Wake have one each. On 247's Top 50 of VA there are 7 kids. VT -2, Wake - 2, and then UMD, Clemson, and Liberty have one. The VT lean isn't listed on 247's top 50. We have 3 lineman committed in the 25 class, and i don't even see UVA listed in the schools who have offered many of these kids. hard to believe we can't do a little better at home.
Sad to see all these old guys getting laid off. It’s not like I’m reading the RTD but the death of local coverage is going to be tough to replace.
seems like i get more uva news from recruiting sites and by the time a journalist gets an article up i have seen half a dozen threads about it. i haven’t had a paper subscription in my adult life
Yeah, I agree. My family in Richmond who are all old keep complaining how the paper keeps getting smaller and smaller. I’m sure as heck not subscribed to it. What’s tough is that we’re losing all the local reporting and, like you said, the only thing filling it in for sports is recruiting sites. Anyway…
We opened as 1.5 point favorites to BC and the line has moved to 3.5. I'm consistently surprised by how much the oddsmakers like us this year
- Castellanos hitting Kendren Smith after the Int was a surprise, but glad we didn’t respond. - i am wrong on two of my preseason loss predictions. so far… - I don’t know why Brown was used so little? - Pace is fine when he makes one cut, but he dances sometimes. - homecoming win in front of a bunch of nice recruits. seems like a good thing.
maybe louisville is in shambles too. i would have to be crazy as a uva fan to assume we’d get anyone else.
I think we can steal 2. We won’t be favored in any besides maybe UNC, but I think we can get an upset somewhere. No clue where. also we got coaches poll votes lol
fuck it - if Northern Illinois can do it... idk - they won't be favored in the non-UNC games but I think it's hard to believe they can't find 2 wins.
This "redshirt to transfer" shit sucks so much. I know it's a part of the sport now for every team but it's such garbage. I hate it.
was it Harrison? I figured he would be gone to USC after this year. oh it's the Clemson DB who stinks. nvm
