Turner's Take: Keep The Good Thing Going

Carolina and Virginia will tangle for the 120th time Saturday as the Cavaliers visit Kenan Stadium for a 3:30 kick. Carolina has won five straight against Virginia (having ended a streak of futility in Charlottesville in 2010) and leads the overall series 62-53-4, but this is a rivalry of runs: after Carolina won nine straight from 1974 to 1982, Virginia went on to take 20 of the next 27 match-ups (the two teams played to a 24-24 tie in 1984). But of course, history means more to fans and alumni than current players and coaches, and Larry Fedora is rightly only concerned with the 2015 team.
