First half observations for UVA football versus Wake Forest

The Virginia Cavaliers trail the Wake Forest Demon Deacons 17-20 at halftime in the ACC opener.

Here are our observations from the first 30 minutes of action.

The storyline for Virginia so far? A timid offense turned hungry, but not without continued team mistakes—including the blocked Virginia punt to end the half.

So, the bottom line is typical for the ‘Hoos: clean it up and fix the simple mistakes—including some questionable in-game coaching calls.

Transfer tight end Tyler Neville is the MVP so far—having scored both of Virginia’s two touchdowns. But, there’s no doubt the ‘Hoos started off with an unsettled offense.
