Matt Johns Putting Together a Historic Year

Despite the team's 4-7 record, Matt Johns is having one of the best years for a Virginia Cavalier quarterback in their history. Here are some stats on his season and career so far:

  • He was the first UVA QB to throw 344 or more yards in a win since Marques Hagans in the Music City Bowl in 2005.
  • Johns 2,639 passing yards this year are already fifth most for a Cavalier season. He only needs 338 more next week versus Virginia Tech to pass Matt Schaub for the single season record.
  • If he throws for 200 or more yards, it will be his 9th such game this season, tying Schaub for the single season record.
