In a game it had to win, the Virginia defense just couldn't get the stops it needed, while the Hoo's made a special teams error that was ultimately the difference in the game. Let's see how it looked From the Upper Deck
Despite a big day from the combination of Matt Johns (25-41, 260 yards, 4 TD) and Canaan Severin (8 Rec, 116 Yards, 3 TD), the Hoos once again just couldn't get the job done on the road. The loss is Virginia's seventh on the season and guarantees that they will be home this bowl season for the fourth year in a row and fifth time in Mike London's six seasons.
