The 2010 preseason polls are out, and it’s almost unanimous.  The UVA Football team is picked as the 11th runner-up in the ACC.

“I’m new to the league, so I’m not exactly sure how many teams there are,” said first year head coach Mike London. “But 11th, that sounds pretty good.  Right?”

Cavalier fans have big hopes after last year’s squad was only 6 wins away from a perfect conference record.  And even a less-than-perfect season can be salvaged with a win in a big rivalry game.

“It’s going to be an intense battle against our cross-state rival VMI,” said London at a recent press conference. 

He later added “Wait… Virginia Tech is our cross-state rival?  Uh-oh.  I hear they’re pretty good.”
