Virginia kicked off the college football season with a statement win over NC State so the Hoos On Podcast recaps the season-opener with Brad Franklin from CavsCorner.

First, host Preston Willett and Brad give their One BIG Take on what the season-opening win in front of a packed Scott Stadium means and how UVA took a big step as a program. The first Hoos On Player of the Game goes to quarterback Beau Pribula, who impressed through the air and on the ground in his debut.

Preston and Brad break down the offense: the 23-play drive, the offensive line lives up to the billing, Des Kitchings cooking, and looking at the skill positions. Then the guys look at John Rudzinski aka "The Mad Scientist" and imagine what the ceiling for the defense could be.

Finally, Preston and Brad wrap up by talking about the atmosphere at Scott Stadium and if the early bye week is good for the Cavaliers.
