“Finally it has happened to me right in front of my face. My feelings can’t describe it.”

After six years of wondering in the college football wilderness, the Virginia Cavaliers are bowl eligible.

It wasn’t an easy path. Consider Saturday’s game alone: the Hoos came back from three different deficits to knock off Georgia Tech. They did so:

  • With a game-winning touchdown in the last two minutes during a driving rainstorm.
  • With three senior defensive studs, two of whom (Micah Kiser and Quin Blanding) could have left school after their junior season.
