If this isn't rock bottom, I don't know what is

I hoped it would never come to this. Watching Western Michigan cel-ebrate on our V-sabre at midfield after pulling off the 17-10 upset Saturday left me with one of the worst tastes in my mouth following a Virginia football game. I can deal with the home losses to Florida State and Miami.

Groh pulls McCabe too early

Would somebody please wake me up? This had to have been only a nightmare. In the real world, there is no way that Virginia could lose at home to a middle-of-the-pack MAC team like Western Michigan. But this situation, however, is what we've come to at this school in the sixth year of the Al Groh era.

Third string not the charm for Cavs

When Jameel Sewell's last-ditch fourth-down scramble was stopped just yards short of a first down in Saturday's 17-10 loss, the Cavaliers' immediate and long-term future both moved squarely under the microscope. On paper, Virginia (1-2, 0-0 ACC) dominated the Broncos in terms of total yards (258 to 179), number of first downs (13 to 9), and third-down conversions (5-14 to 3-14). None of these statistical advantages was significant in changing the result of the game, though. "Western Michigan knew exactly what kind of game they had to play, which was play a good, sound, solid game, see if Virginia would do enough to help them win," coach Al Groh said.
