The Virginia Cavaliers’ win over Georgia Tech last Saturday, becoming bowl eligible for the first time in six years, was despite a lackluster first half and a 28-13 deficit.
The comeback required not only scoring plenty of points in a hurry, but also shutting down a potent Yellow Jackets offense.
Offense
Overall, the offensive numbers aren’t good: only 357 total yards, with just 97 on the ground, and under four yards per carry. Kurt Benkert averaged just six yards per attempt, which is not good. There were far too many dropped passes, something that has plagued this team this season.
