Chandler Morris scored on a 4-yard run in the second overtime and Virginia beat No. 8 Florida State 46-38 on Friday night for its first home victory over a Top 10 team since also beating the Seminoles in 2005. Morris ran for three scores and had two touchdown passes for the Cavaliers (4-1, 2-0 Atlantic Coast Conference). After the go-ahead TD run, he completed a pass to Trell Harris for the 2-point conversion. Florida State (3-1, 0-1) had a chance to tie, but Duce Robinson bobbled a pass going out the back of the end zone on third down. On fourth-and-12 at the 27, Tommy Castellanos' heave into the end zone was intercepted by Ja'Son Prevard, with Cavaliers fans instantly storming the field.

Florida State rallied to force overtime, with Castellanos throwing an 11-yard touchdown pass to Randy Pittman Jr. on a fourth-down play with 32 seconds left. The teams traded field goals in the first overtime. Robinson caught nine passes for 147 yards and a touchdown, and Castellanos threw for 254 and a score and ran for another 78 yards and a touchdown. J'Mari Taylor ran for 99 yards and a score as Virginia's run game ate up the clock in the second half. Virginia turned a pair of first-quarter takeaways into touchdowns and an early 14-0 lead, but Florida State stormed back to go ahead 21-14 at the half, fueled by two interceptions. The teams were tied at 21 at halftime and 28 after three quarters. - Virginia/AP College Football

Wide receiver Trell Harris caught a trio of first-quarter touchdown passes as Virginia raced away from visiting Stanford, 48-20, on Saturday night at Scott Stadium. Chandler Morris had his most productive game quarterbacking in a Virginia uniform, throwing for 380 yards and four touchdowns and running for another score. J'Mari Taylor ran for 85 yards on 15 carries for the Cavaliers, who averaged 5.7 yards per carry.

A week after setting a program record with 700 total offensive yards against FCS William & Mary, the Virginia offense hummed at a similarly high rate against Stanford, blistering the Cardinal for 590 yards. The Cavaliers' defense bottled up Stanford star running back Micah Ford. A week after Ford went for a career-high 157 yards in a win over Boston College, he found no room to run against Virginia, finishing with 44 yards on 13 carries. He did score a 3-yard touchdown in the second quarter. The Cardinal did make yards through big passing plays. Bryce Farrell had a 60-yard reception in the first half and a 68-yard touchdown catch in the second. - Virginia/AP College Football

Harrison Waylee rushed for 151 yards and three touchdowns, including a school-record 97-yarder, as Virginia rolled up a program-record 700 yards offense and blew out visiting William & Mary 55-16 on Saturday. Of Virginia's 700 yards, 379 came on the ground. UVA totaled 691 yards against Davidson in a 1968 meeting for the old record. UVA quarterback Chandler Morris went 13 of 19 for 149 yards and a 3-yard touchdown pass to backup tight end John Rogers with six minutes to play in the second quarter. That score put the Cavaliers ahead 35-7 and was the last one Morris would throw. Virginia played the second half almost entirely with backups.

William & Mary quarterback Noah Brannock threw for 111 yards and ran for another 35 and a touchdown. The Tribe scored their first points on a 79-yard touchdown pass from Tyler Hughes to Deven Thompson in the second quarter. They nearly had another long score in the third, but Noah Brannock's 39-yard pass into the end zone was dropped by a wide-open Isaiah Lemmond. William & Mary punter Carter Boyd pinned Virginia at its own 3-yard line on the next snap. But on the following play, Waylee, a transfer from Wyoming, picked his way through the right side of the offensive line, then burst up the Tribe's sideline untouched for the record-setting run and TD. - Virginia/AP College Football

08/30/25 - Chandler Morris, rSr/2026, Virginia, 6-0, 192 (DS#18 QB) + More +

Virginia starting quarterback Chandler Morris suffered a helmet-to-helmet hit early in the third quarter of the Cavaliers' season-opener against Coastal Carolina. Morris, the North Texas transfer and son of former Arkansas and SMU coach Chad Morris, broke free on a run and opted against sliding, instead juking a defender and getting to the Coastal 2. That's where he collided with Chanticleers' cornerback Myles Mooyoung. Morris stayed down for a few minutes, before being helped to the sideline, where he entered the UVA medical tent.

A few minutes after that, Virginia staffers escorted Morris toward the team's locker room. The exact nature of Morris' injury is not known. Morris returned to the sidelines in the fourth quarter, his left shoulder wrapped heavily with ice. Nebraska transfer Daniel Kaelin, who had never thrown a college pass, entered the game for Morris. The Cavaliers don't have an experienced backup. Only short-yardage specialist Grady Brosterhous has a collegiate pass on his resume. - AP College Football

Cam Ross had 124 receiving yards and a touchdown catch and ran a kickoff back 100 yards for another score and Virginia rolled past Coastal Carolina, 48-7 in its season opener on Saturday night at Scott Stadium. Quarterback Chandler Morris threw for 264 yards and two scores before exiting the game with an injury early in the third quarter. The two teams featured massively rebuilt rosters. Virginia had over 50 new players and Coastal more than 60. For the home team, many of those new names showed up in a big way, including Ross, Morris and transfer running back J'Mari Taylor, who scored a pair of touchdowns.

All six of Virginia's touchdowns came from transfers, who made a strong first impression on the announced crowd of 46,143. Coastal Carolina didn't find the same success with its transfer quarterback. MJ Morris, who has played at North Carolina State and Maryland, finished 20 for 36 for 163. Running back Ja'Vin Simpkins was the only Coastal player to find the end zone, scoring on an 8-yard run in the third quarter. Virginia outgained Coastal, 454-254. - AP College Football

Chandler Morris threw for 415 yards with three touchdowns and he added two rushing scores to help North Texas defeat South Alabama 52-38 on Saturday night in the season opener for both teams. The game was the debut for Major Applewhite as head coach of South Alabama. North Texas erupted for 38 points in the second half and did not punt after halftime.
