Virginia Football uses strong second half to take down Liberty, 45-24

The Virginia Cavaliers secured their first winning regular season since 2011 with a 45-24 victory over the Liberty Flames. Things were a little tighter than Virginia fans would have liked through the first half of the game, but the Cavalier defense stepped it up with two second half interceptions as they separated from the Flames.

Bryce Perkins rebounded from a shaky performance against Pitt last week with a solid game against Liberty. Perkins finished 14-for-22 passing for 168 yards and two touchdowns and added 89 yards and two touchdowns on the ground.
