At 0-3, the Virginia Cavaliers badly need a win before this season completely gets away. You could argue that the Wahoos aren’t that far away from being 2-1, as they have led by double-digits in both of the past two games. But overall, the play simply has not been good enough.
As a team, Virginia currently ranks 120th in total defense and 113th in total offense. That’s how you end up 0-3. Based on ESPN’s SP+ rankings, Virginia ranks 94th. NC State currently ranks 46th, better than JMU but worse than Tennessee and Maryland.
