It only feels like forever since a UVA Football game has felt like something important.

The ‘Hoos did make it to the ACC Championship Game in 2019, which isn’t forever ago – though it was before COVID, and it can be hard to remember what life was like before COVID.

Virginia and Florida State played a memorable night game in Charlottesville in that 2019 season, won by the Cavaliers, 31-24.

UVA scored three TDs in the fourth quarter, and stopped Cam Akers at the UVA 4 on the final play.

FSU-Virginia in Charlottesville in primetime on Friday night is the focal point of the Week 5 ACC Football schedule.
