Handing out letter grades to break down Virginia's comeback victory at Wake Forest.
improved to 2-0 on the season with an electrifying come-from-behind 31-30 victory on the road at Wake Forest on Saturday night in Winston-Salem. The Cavaliers trailed the Demon Deacons for 58 minutes, but ended the game on a 14-0 run to steal their ACC opener for the first time since the 2020 season.
As we break down what we saw from the Cavaliers in their first road game of the year and what it means for the rest of the season, let's hand out some report card grades for various players, position groups, and other categories to help evaluate Virginia's performance in week 2.Colandrea completed 33 of his 43 passing attempts for 357 yards and three touchdowns. Those 33 completions were a career-high and most by a Cavalier quarterback since Brennan Armstrong in 2021.
On the second to last drive of the game, Virginia punched in a game-winning touchdown with Grady Brosterhous and it's not the specific playcalling we have an issue with, but rather the clock management. A completion to Fields set up 1st and goal from the Wake Forest 2-yard line with three minutes left in regulation.
