NFL playoff predictions

By Sean McGoey | December 3, 2013

Finals season is upon us, and there are just four weeks of the NFL regular season to go. That means it’s about time for that age-old tradition that football-fanatic college students like me participate in every year — trying so hard to concentrate on my studies, banging my head on my desk a couple of times, cursing my non-existent willpower, then heading back to ESPN.com to try to predict how the playoffs will turn out.

Another week, another loss. Another football season all but gone down the drain, and the fans are screaming for the coach’s head. This sounds familiar. Before Mike London’s arrival in Charlottesville, Virginia fans were equally outraged with then-head coach Al Groh.

Virginia, impact freshman relish UNC challenge

By Kristen Cauley | November 6, 2013

Searching for a silver lining amid a six-game losing streak might seem futile as the Virginia football team travels to Chapel Hill to face North Carolina this weekend, but it is not impossible to find.

Watford, receivers let loose in loss

By Zack Bartee | October 26, 2013

The Cavaliers tested Georgia Tech deep early and often, with David Watford slinging the ball around the field after weeks of conservative, run-heavy play-calling. They may not have hit on all or even most of their attempts, but the important part was that they were trying, right?
