Hoos Bracing for Battle at Scott Stadium

Year in, year out, BC fields big, strong teams that relish physical confrontations and love to run the ball. “They take pride in smash-mouth football,” Virginia head coach Tony Elliott said Tuesday during his weekly press conference at the Hardie Center. This is the Eagles' first season under head coach Bill O'Brien, an NFL veteran whose team visits Scott Stadium on Saturday. The Cavaliers are coming off a game in which they rushed for 384 yards, and they'll be looking to “go out there and try to impose our will” again Saturday, Elliott said.
