Virginia vs Wake Forest 2ND QTR | NCAAF Football Week 2 Game Highlights SEP 7, 2024

yeah I mean a ball that trell Harris easily could have had six points on for Virginia well we mentioned this earlier for Wake pores they're without their third Team all ACC defensive end from last year done something all week long and precautions that both these teams were hit with injuries last season and you're talking about a guys as healthy as possible with this being their ACCC opener I think just more precautions and we were told he would be a game time here Brown stretches in left side for Virginia and he picks up a couple yards ran into Branson comes guys I talked to asked him about BJ Williams who was getting his first start and he told me his advice to him was read your keys to get length candria Dives down for a yard brings up third down yeah BJ Williams an experienced guy redard Jr with no Davis tonight yeah one thing about J Davis he is a Sunday guy we talking about NFL players and this is where you Virginia's 0 for four on third down so so far in this first half fourman rush kandria trying to the thick [Applause] pick Tyler Walton got sometimes if you can't get to the quarterback just get a hand up I want you to watch I think he's right here in the middle I'm outside it was a quick twist I saw it come from the middle of the play and a nice job by Tyler Walton get the hand up just knock it down get a hand up and Mr walon that's how you do it helping brother out Davis injury made the play for pointer and now Sudden Change Wake Forest right down to the ground I I run it right again and I think BM was saying the same thing he looked at the game again with the running back that Dave Clawson said is maybe the most dynamic they've had in their 11 years as a staff [Music] it is Clayborn a Clayborn and wait Forest Dan to the [Music] lead it's all about po baby points off turn by Keegan trost and able to allow Clayborn to go north and south what he loves to do that's a big it takes just two plays and 38 more seconds for for us to cash all over the field hopefully he can return yeah it's your kind of guy Matt Dennis adds the extra point Clore yeah Walton help your brother out get a hand up he gets the hand up pointer she's had a sensational seon a couple of great former whoos in Charlottesville Caleb Carlson sends a tyres got a scene and he crashes down to pass the 30 but check in with Kevin Connor in the studio this is Nebraska's Tommy Hill the pick six of shador Sanders an early 14 nothing husers [Applause] lead in a huge that took that personal last year so I'm not surprised by the start of this game from the Nebraska coin Huskers up 14 insert MJ watching these drives it's been punt punt field goal punt interception they're just trying to get positive play huge drive right here they got to keep Pace with what Wake Forest is doing offensively and 34 points in week one for Malachi fields and then we're also keeping tabs on the o line as well because they've been cross because look at this Ethan scy broke a bone in his foot in practice this week he's got to have season ended an Achilles injury and he's now lost for the season and Jack Whitmer he lines up that left tackle he was converted from sideline shot and a nice catch by trell Harris good response from him for a first down but the confidence to go back to trell Harris and the huge third down they go quickly they get it out wide to Malachi Fields now right candria getting the guys lined up they're going much quicker much faster Tempo than they did in the first quarter for Malachi Fields as Dez kitchings turns up the pace and it's Kobe Pace left side and stop for a loss granson Coles and Dylan Hazen both both these guys are outstanding linebackers Junior downhill that time Branson comes and Hazen they just they fly they get up to the line of scrimage they just make plays his head and kandria cross the middle tight window trell Harris again and the Kent State transfer takes it inside Demon Deacons around that football with a nice throw from kandria who still goes up tempo for the C Andria races away from coms and slides at the 18 with a first down always competing right there in the middle of the field Dylan Hazen missed and now he's Off to the Races deep into the secondary his ability to run that was Focus number one for the Wake DC by Tyler Neville touchdown Virginia the 6'4 tight end the Harvard transfer goes up the lad down at wake four this was nothing but a jump ball and Tyler Neville jumped up and looking at all that 64 frame went up in Harford transfer going up helping his quarterback out for the touchdown grab a 1,000 points in a Virginia uniform is a Tandy and it's a onore game again junior year your man he never wanted to let it go again started the Tyler Neville Foundation to let kids know guys absolutely beautiful done to the studio and Kevin Connor all right Mike your Chick-fil-A move Smith doing the heavy lifting Smith the super freshman and we now know exactly how fast he is one step fast R They just added another Mike it's 21 nothing all right so the stud fresh the wide receiver Factory now the Ohio State sure is early second quarter here in Winston Salem and the red shirt freshman ACC opener for both these teams Virginia three wins each of the first two years under Tony [Music] Elliot Green in the plus territory 31 yds working on Dre Walker oh we learned so and to be able to control the extra Defender that's what this offense does and that's what BM did on with his first Carry slipped to tackle takes it to the 39 yeah they say don't say slow mes look rer we we just don't it's not a slow mesh it's just our offense only 18% of our offense barrels down to the 26 yd line one of the things about their offense try to get in front but they double team and they get off the double teams they help out and then they get off and that's what allows some of these creases Bach me pulled it Slips Away from trouble and just gets rid of it being chased and then getting to the next play just throwing it out of bounds was Hank Bach from BM who made the right move there is just one for his last six on second down Senior Star on this defense with the sack a loss of five and third down oh I saw Dwight Frey he's going to come in and watch the spin move that he puts on he gets he blitzes late it's the spin move to the inside back after they had just 11 all of last season BM he'll be a few yards shy Cory Thomas the akan transfer in on the Stop and it's fourth down but holding this wake Force offense to a field goal that's a win and the way they did it Mike you mentioned a couple of those sacks get to the quarterback and one of the newcomers for Tony Elliott who he added through the portal Matt Dennis comes out and Matt Dennis is good backs red hot best team in baseball last few months against the Astros and Justin Verlander s Eastern on ESP nights countdown I always love the cool nicknames go Dbacks Co throws you know what I mean you a baseball guy yeah my time right now it's okay that's okay it's okay it happens from just outside the goal line this is Chris Wake Forest defense what have you seen from it so far well they're answering the call of their head coach Dave Clawson last week they didn't tackle very well candria in check the defensive ends pointer the linebacker feeling this an outstanding job and they end up getting a touchdown off of that play So it's been the defense that has really sparked this wake Force lead Xavier Brown gets a carry on the ground takes it out for four yards and what do you do if you're Virginia offensively move the pace down just a little bit you want to go fast but you don't want to get three and out you want to keep this offense on the field here's Brown off the left he's given some burst I like that because coming into this drive the running backs hadn't really carried the ball they still go Up Tempo and now off play action kandria to a wide open man making the grab and pulls it in for 26 yeah that is all off the play action see how what happens you run the ball effectively and you give at it all week long Mike what's what do we see from kandria well he's at his best when you change the launch angle that time the sixth career catch for Gibson and now brown again picks up four yards ran into Branson coms maybe calms your quarterback down a little [Music] bit and brown down in manageable and now you get to the manageable part and if I'm Wake Forest on defense for Virginia offensively keep an eye on the guy at the bottom of the screen the receiver Malachi fields to Siege and is any short Quincy Bryant in on the stop with Capone tackle but this was all about this re this corner and attacking you got to attack when you're on the outside the wide receiver that makes an easy play and now look at this on fourth down and one the but Tony Elliott will take the time out before that tush pushes well it's the ACC opener for both these teams the series that dates back so you got to go back to 2007 Riley Skinner Simpson on the other side making it a 1 47 with two seconds left whoa Swank with a shank to down candrian shotgun and now time out Wake Forest interesting so first things first do you like the decision where the ball's at talking about about the 29 yard line so you're saying you know what why not can't punt the football so I think this is a good decision in the right time right here but putting the quarterback in shotgun Sprint action to the right remember the play we talked about earlier he can take off find a receiver if it's not there be able to Grady broster house that's why it's called the Grady Bunch coming out for that tush push package but again after one candria to the air to the sideline find and caught by throw but an absolute Gem of a throw where it needed to be TR Harris pulls it down for the first R set of downs candria downfield Neville again his second [Music] touchdown it's a tight end all eyes are on Malachi Fields the receivers no one's got their eye on Tyler Neville who just goes right through the Robinson hey that's not my guy Neville Gets behind him for the touchdown and Virginia to go for it on fourth down and goal from in close you can see it when he came to the sideline they keep it in his hands that was trust you got to trust your young sophomore quarterback and he was able to trust and believe and how did this get started got going and then you get down in here on a fourth down you convert yeah you point over to the coach appreciate it that's more of a coach I got you and Neville with number two on the day and how about Tyler Neville step because in the ivy league you can't have that fifth year so they knew they were going to want Tyler Neville and Tony ellams there at Harvard Tim Murphy who said come on in I'll tell you all about Tyler Neville what a performance he's had claybour with some wiggle breaks the tackle and gets swung down at the 29 yd line what's the answer kandria leads his team on a drive and now you're saying Hank interested to see how this offense responds to that Virginia score and the first half filled with steps back in in the gun it's a give to deont Clayborn and he gets stacked up immediately don't have Cam Robinson out there for Virginia yeah I had a coach would always say sometimes you got to wear the big Sombrero I mean wear the big hat that mean on his shoulders with Cam Robinson out with injury you see how bmers fared through the air in this first half cold re BM tucks it takes off and Hank Bach goes across High stay down the field though the entire time he's trying to find an open guy he goes to the progressions and realize wait there's nobody a 25-year-old who's now at his third School approaching 3 minutes to go until half comeb back pattern and he's got his veteran wide out Taylor Moren to the plus 40 14 y just goes up turns around at 10 yards and the ball's already out of bm's hands tick under three to go in the first half pushes the pile for three [Music] yds two for one situation and I call it two for one because Wake Forest wants to drain this clock they also get the ball to start the second half little basketball terminology with the two for one here Mike there you go go see you see me it's speaking a terminology in the college D say warning CK M communication again one player on the field per team at a time and it shuts off so it's off right now as bachmeier takes it pulls it sideline incomplete flung it toward Donan Jam Jackson and Donovan Green both of them that's competing match ups on the outside this is a much improved secondary for Virginia they went to the portal to go grab some guys like Jack secondary for Virginia BM against pressure on court I think BM felt James Jackson felt him you know I mean sometimes you may not get there you may not get the sack but if you throw it a little earlier than he may have wanted to it's the blitz on the outside Jackson's just right there and now you're right on the edge of field goal range there's a buck 20 left Virginia's got two timeouts and on third down last is on him with Jason Hammond and cam Butler it's fourth down and a timeout used having a sack party right there that's four today and this is a basic it's a look to create that space needed for a catch I'm like they're shoulder to- shoulder Mike now when the ball to turn over on downs and you mentioned the transfers added in the secondary Jam Jackson from the FCS level Robert Morris now a minute plus to work with and this is a screen to Kobe Pace who takes it out of bounds streaking to the 37 and it's talking about it me and you Mike about the middle eight that's what coach Tony Elliot preaches It's the final four minutes of the second quarter right now Virginia off to a good start trell Harris maintained his footing and takes it to the 46 I mentioned earlier Wake Forest gets the ball to start the second half so to get a score here whether it's a touchdown or field goal is positive for Harris incomplete glasker in coverage and it breaks up a string of 10 straight completions Defender there that's the sideline so sometimes you don't have to run step for step utilize the Harris grimaces as he comes off the field the Ken State transfer and wide receiver to the sideline for Tony Elliot's group spot it's Tyler Neville dragging Defenders down toward the 38 and the late flag comes in as well and to add 15 yards on this this would be crucial at the end of The Run where Neville ended up at the 38 yd line I'm trying not to guess here but watching these Virginia players Retreat offense number eight 15yd penalty second down Malachi Fields the and that's against the rules you cannot block a player who is in action that's just an undisciplined play by Malachai Fields just wasn't needed so just Kobe pace put his foot in the ground and couldn't escape Branson coms and it's just a yard lot of time coming off the clock here yeah I was wondering why coach wouldn't call the timeout too tall for Fields Jamari Glaser breaks it up and it's fourth down yeah I would love to say hey look we got one play all right if we get the first down we can kill the clock but give us an opportunity to score points maybe not a ending for Wake Forest gets them off the field Taylor Moren back it's blocked blocked the punt Horatio Fields comes up with it with two seconds to go it's all about the get off Mike deuce on the outside he gets off unblocked if you're not going to block me you're going to get untouched for the block and now gives one more play for Wake fors from the 39 so it's out of Matt Dennis's field goal range Dave Clon has a couple of timeouts he use one of them here right it's the conference opener for both teams but chat this year Cal with a huge win over Auburn right before this game this is going to be a fun ACC people thought this was going to be the champion of the ACC and Florida State 0 and twoy trying to climb up correct combined for just seven wins last year but this is Big Dave Clon in particular they're look ways a tough out and then nexton you know you will look up and they're fighting for a conference Championship game playing timeout Virginia uses it
