This was the wrong week for UVA sports fans to stop sniffing glue

AFP Podcasts

That’s just an expression, the thing about sniffing glue, and I doubt many UVA sports fans actually partake, but whatever the vice is, you’re probably doing more of it now, with your football and basketball teams partying like it’s 2009.

My effort at helping you find healthier ways to deal with your anxieties is this podcast.

The topics:

• UVA Football: How bad have things gotten, really? An examination
  SMU left its starting quarterback in to throw a TD pass with 1:42 to go up 33-7, which should p— you off, if you’re a UVA Football fan, because SMU doesn’t need the style points, since the win here on Saturday puts the Mustangs into the ACC title game, and in control of its own CFP destiny.
• UVA Football: Tony Elliott isn’t interested in your opinion on who should be his QB
  UVA Footballcoach Tony Elliott has clearly had enough of you idjits who didn’t call the plays for Deshaun Watson or Trevor Lawrence as Clemson was winning natties trying to tell him who to play at quarterback.
• Inside the Numbers: Simplified game plan, play-calling doomed UVA Football offense
  The UVA Football offense never had a chance on Saturday against SMU, and it started with the game plan, the coaching given to the quarterback, and the play calling.
• UVA Basketball: The analytics of how bad that trip to the Bahamas was
  Last week’s 70-point night against Villanova in Baltimore seems like a fever dream for UVA Basketball fans, who have the nightmarish 42-point throwback to the 2023-2024 ‘Hoos that ran Tony Bennett out of the sport fresh in their minds.
• Fair or not, Ron Sanchez doesn’t have a lot of time to figure things out
  Ahead of this week, UVA Basketball hadn’t lost back-to-back games by 22 or more since 2008.
