1st Look at UVA

[Indianaftw]

Game started out like IU as they went down 7-0. The QB Perkins is going to give us some problems as he has some wheels. They also have a solid RB in Ellis and a WR with good wheels in Zaccheus. The defense is going to have to improve and make quite a few adjusts to handle this QB.

Heres a preview

Yes QB Perkins appears to have a set of wheels. D will will need to maintain gap control and/or spy on him to fully contain.

One thing that jumped out to me is how slow Richmond is. Even the pick 6 felt like it was happening in slow motion.

Here's a hot take article about their game against Richmond from their fan site:

I usually don't put much stock in Althons but they do write a nice thumbnail overview.

I had wondered where Cassius Peat ended up. Guess we'll get to see him play after all...
Let's hope he's not as good as was as originally hyped coming out of H.S....

Mendenhall annouced today that Peat has a shoulder injury he has been dealing with and it has caused him to decide to no longer play .

Knutson is from Indiana...

Hate seeing that. At least he's a backup (in this article anyway)...

Speaking of O-lines FIU's offensive line had everyone back from last year and was senior laden. i know some mentioned we struggled on the d-line but the FIU O-line was a strength of theirs.

That's true. Gotta say I was really surprised to see some of our stalwarts getting worked by them however...

Virginia is decent but if we cant beat them at home, we arent a bowl team.

Totally different animal in regards to the style of offense compared to FIU however its the same one we practice against every day.

O line was mentioned as their strength and they played 8 total in the game and got to Shawndarrius Phillips play everyday in practice and he is a man and they threw a couple of other backs as changeups I think they may be better this year than people think.

Working against a new MLB and a new FS should have Ramsey & Debord licking their chops...

Virginia's secondary is not good. IU will score a lot of points and cover the -6.5.

Can't keep losing running backs, but this team is better than people realize. FIU was not a bad team.
