Second half powers Cavs over Spiders
Virginia posted 488 yards of total offense and wore down a game Richmond squad in the second half en route to a 34-13 season-opening victory on Saturday.
The win came in the first game under new head coach Mike London, a former UVa. defensive coordinator who left Richmond for Charlottesville to replace the departed Al Groh.
A 26-21 loss to I-AA William and Mary to start the 2009 season was the beginning of Groh’s undoing. The impressive win over the I-AA national-title contender UR in 2010 gets the London regime off to a positive start.
