What went wrong and what's fixable
- QB: Much better passer is what he looks like, people said in Spring where Beau's faults lay and that his weaknesses were other QB's strengths and remain so.

What went wrong and what's fixable
- QB: We thought we could win with line dominance on both sides and, like many coaches, didn't want to put too much on film for conference play.

Hillman note
- QB: No that would be paying a QB whole can’t throw after an 11 win season.

PFF Story note
- QB/DL: How can that be when the QB scrambles for 3 TDs and Danley couldnt cut it off a single time

Around the league - football
- QB/KICKER: Except the Coach is responsible for making sure whoever gets that ball knows exactly what he is doing - and that has to include avoid contact from a defender at all cost.

Everything Virginia head coach Tony Elliott said after the loss to West Virginia
- Tony Elliott said Montino Williams went out first against West Virginia because Brandyn Hillman had a tooth issue, missed the first three practice days and had difficulty sleeping and eating. Hillman practiced Thursday and Friday, but the staff wanted to manage him carefully. Elliott did not announce a permanent starting-order change or confirm that the planned extraction had occurred.
- After Noah Josey left in the second quarter with the ankle injury described in the article, Ben York and Jon Adair played inside for Virginia. Elliott valued Josey's leadership but did not identify his absence as the decisive cause of the loss; multiple interior linemen were already scheduled to play. No recovery timetable or new permanent OL order was provided.
- Elliott said West Virginia's edge pressures forced Virginia to hand off rather than retain a two-way quarterback run option. Trailing later also made the offense more predictable, and pressure overloaded protections when Virginia needed four receivers out. The staff leaned toward controlled throws against the varied looks; Elliott did not announce a standing restriction on Beau Pribula's running.
- Virginia wanted to make Michael Hawkins one-dimensional, but Elliott cited an early run-fit error that became a touchdown and empty formations creating one-on-one passing matchups even behind the chains. He also faulted lost contested plays and a crossing-route explosive, while noting that major penalties extended drives. The concerns were execution and preparation, not an announced coverage replacement.
