As we at Streaking the Lawn are kicking off our Virginia Cavaliers Football Opponent Preview series, up first, logically, is UVA’s season opening opponent, Richmond.

2021 Recap
Record: 6-5
Postseason: None
In 2021 the Spiders had a pretty middle of the road season. With wins over Howard, Lehigh, New Hampshire, Towson, Delaware, and William & Mary, Richmond finished seventh in the 12 team CAA.
