Virginia rallied from a two-touchdown deficit to defeat Boston College 24-14 in an ACC clash. The Cavaliers, now 4-1, scored 24 unanswered points, including 18 in the fourth quarter, to secure the win. Boston College initially led 14-0, with quarterback Thomas Castellanos completing his first 11 passes for 135 yards and two touchdowns. However, Virginia's defense forced three turnovers in the fourth quarter, contributing to the Eagles' unraveling. Anthony Colandrea threw a go-ahead touchdown to Malachi Fields, and Jonas Sanker sealed the victory with a scoop-and-score touchdown. This victory marks Virginia's most wins in a season under coach Tony Elliott, surpassing their win totals from the past two seasons and bringing them closer to bowl eligibility.
