Thomas Castellanos is expected back at the helm to face a UVA defense that’s made a lot of progress from last season’s bottom of the conference unit. In last year’s three-point BC win, Castellanos went 16/26 for 183 yards, two touchdown, and two interceptions. The connection with Lewis Bond was lethal, and he added 78 yards rushing.
This UVA defense has improved to now allowing about 23.5 points per game. Senior safeties Jonas Sanker and Antonio Clary have been the stars of the show. The now-healthy Clary leads the team with 41 tackles and has the team’s only interception.
