Forward progress shouldn’t exist. You’re down where you’re down, even if that means being carried like a sack of potatoes out the back of the end zone for a safety.
What is your biggest college football hot take?

Last season, Virginia became just the 5th team in FBS history to have four games go to overtime in a single season. The Cardiac Cavaliers won three of the four overtime games, tied for the most overtime wins in a single season since overtime was instituted in 1996.

Is there some kind of Polymarket bet for how many times Alexi Lalas will say ā€œsexyā€ during this Brazil/Morocco pregame broadcast that I don’t know about? Or maybe it was on his Word of the Day calendar?

This is orders of magnitude more damaging to the integrity of college sports than NIL, the transfer portal, and conference realignment combined.

Poor lane discipline from #UVA here. Can’t let Smothers bounce to the outside so easily.
TRENDING: #Browns QB Deshaun Watson is drawing criticism on social media after posting this video from his private jet 😳 Watson was playing College Football while seated across from his wife. DW4 is on a fully guaranteed 5-year, $230 million contract.

This was the biggest missing piece on the #UVA roster from my perspective. The Hoos needed a competent ball-handler who can initiate the offense and play on/off the ball. His size and length are added bonuses.
NEWS: Loyola Marymount transfer Jan Vide has committed to Virginia, he told @LeagueRDY. The 6-foot-6 guard out of Slovenia averaged 12.1PPG, 4.0APG and 3.0RPG this past season. Has also spent time at UCLA.

College Gameday doesn’t usually travel for Week 0, and if they did, they would probably choose to go to Ireland to cover UNC… But what if ESPN instead used this as a chance to finally come to Charlottesville? šŸ¤”šŸ¤”šŸ¤”

Big Week 0 news for the Hoos and the #ACC. UVA gets another home game…but this is an odd development.
NEWS: UVA and NC State season opener originally located in Brazil will move to Charlottesville. Date and time still TBD. "This change follows communication from Athlete Advantage, which informed the ACC and participating schools that the event could not be conducted."
