The internet rumors about the UVA Football QB situation have it half-right: Tony Muskett, the backup all season, will start tonight’s regular-season finale at Virginia Tech.

The half the rumor mill has wrong: the interwebs have been abuzz this afternoon about Anthony Colandrea, who started the first 11 games at QB, to the effect that Colandrea had quit the team and had not made the trip to Blacksburg.

#TeamAFP staff writer Scott German confirmed with UVA Athletics that Colandrea is in Blacksburg, will be in uniform and will be the backup to Muskett for tonight’s game.
