Virginia football cruises to 38-18 win over UConn

The Virginia football team improved their record to 2-1 with a dominant victory over UConn, 38-18. The Hoos were clicking on both sides of the ball, a major improvement after the struggles last week against Indiana. Kurt Benkert finished with 455 yards, going 30-for-40 with three touchdowns and one interception. Olamide Zaccheaus had an incredible day with 47 yards rushing and 122 through the air with one receiving touchdown. He also added 56 return yards.

Congrats to @LlamaDay, the 37th player in program history with 1,000 career receiving yards! He's got 9 catches for 122 yards today.
