Virginia
W 34-8 vs NC State · Sat, Aug 29 · 1-0 overall
Misery Index · Euphoric
Twenty years of home losses to NC State erased in one ass whooping, and the Hoos are drunk on it.
What happened
Virginia opened at home against NC State and never let it get interesting, winning 34-8 to start the year 1-0. The turning point came early, when the Wolfpack stopped resembling an opponent and started resembling a scrimmage partner; one fan called it "an absolute ass whooping," and nobody in the thread argued. The detail that stung sweetest: "First home win against NC State in 20 years. Wahoowa!" Two decades of Scott Stadium disappointment, settled in an afternoon. Virginia fans now face the harder question of what to do with hope.
