5. Virginia's recent road history

The Virginia Cavaliers are coming off a huge win over Florida State, but it was at home. The Cavaliers have struggled on the road since Tony Elliot took over, and Louisville and Jeff Brohm will capitalize on this crucial weakness.

UVA has a 5-11 record on the road with just two key wins. However, those two wins were against ranked teams at the time. But by the end of the season, it was revealed that both Pitt and North Carolina were not as good and had dropped out of the rankings. Virginia has lost by an average of nearly 20 points per game on the road, and gives up 32.2 points per game.

This program has experienced significant letdowns when playing away from home, including last season when they lost by 20 points to Virginia Tech, 21 points to Notre Dame, and 17 points to Clemson. L&N Stadium is going to be electric all afternoon tomorrow, and the Cavaliers' track record suggests they will have a long game.
