The real Virginia football this season has not been played in Scott Stadium, but down the road at Klöckner Stadium. While the giants of the gridiron have continued to lull Cavalier faithful with their stretch runs and dropped passes, the Virginia men's soccer team has wowed fans with dramatic victories time and time again this season.
