On this week’s episode of the CavsCorner Podcast, we begin with the beginning of hoops season, as the fourth-ranked Wahoos laid waste to Towson on Wednesday afternoon. We get into the nuts and bolts of the opener, what stands out, what surprised us, and what we’re still wondering about after the rout of the Tigers. Then we move to the gridiron where we discuss the loss of Charles Snowden and what UVa will have to contend with in Tallahassee this weekend before we give our picks and then get another prop bet update.

On this week’s episode of the CavsCorner Podcast, we spend the bulk of the show talking UVa basketball as the Wahoos get closer and closer to tipping off their 2020-2021 season later this month. We start with a conversation about the preseason ACC voting, where Virginia was tabbed as the favorite for the first time since 1982 and Sam Hauser made the first-team. We then get into the team itself, the mix of talent, and what “success” looks like for a roster this loaded that remains the reigning national champs. And once we wrap up our roundball discussion, we move to the gridiron where UVa will host Louisville this weekend. We preview the matchup and give our thoughts on how we see that game playing out.

Then for the first time in a while we transition over to hoops and discuss our expectations for this year’s team and how things might play out. And yes, we also talk about the new jerseys.
