Virginia vs. Clemson Pregame Notes

• Saturday marks Tony Elliott’s return to Memorial Stadium for the first time since he departed the program to become the head coach at Virginia in December of 2021.
• Clemson leads the all-time series with Virginia 40-8-1 and has a 21-3-1 advantage over the Cavaliers in games played at Memorial Stadium.
• This will be the first meeting between Dabo Swinney and Tony Elliott as head coaches, but Swinney owns a perfect 5-0 record against Virginia as Clemson's head coach.
• The last time the Cavaliers faced a top-ten opponent on the road was last season against North Carolina, where the Hoos earned a massive 31-27 victory over the Tar Heels, UVA's first road win over a top 10 team in program history.
• There are three former Clemson Tigers on the Virginia football roster, but only one of them - running back Kobe Pace - will play on Saturday, as tight end Sage Ennis went down with a season-ending injury in the Coastal Carolina game and defensive back Malcolm Greene is redshirting the rest of this season.
• UVA is outscoring opponents 45-27 in the fourth quarter this season, while Clemson is getting outscored 48-26 in the fourth quarter (though that has a lot to do with the Tigers building large leads before the fourth quarter of their games).
• Four of UVA’s next five opponents are ranked in the AP Top 25: No. 10 Clemson, No. 12 Notre Dame, No. 20 Pitt, and No. 21 SMU. Three of the four contests against currently ranked foes will take place away from Charlottesville.
