The game scheduled for this weekend between UVA and Louisville has been postponed a week due to a COVID-19 situation on the Louisville football team.
“We are taking a precautionary measure to pause due the number of student-athletes and staff that have been impacted by the virus,” said Louisville athletic director Vince Tyra. “With Virginia and us both having a bye week on November 14, we are fortunate to reschedule the game for that date. It also avails us a chance to gauge any further spread of the virus. Test results from both Friday and Sunday will dictate when we return to team activities. We appreciate the ACC and Virginia working with us at this time.”

“We’ve had an altered schedule this week that you probably already know about but if not, I’ll detail it quickly for you,” said Mendenhall to open the press conference. “No athletically related activities are allowed today, as the nation is voting, and the election is happening. So there’s no lifting, no position meetings, no practice that are happening today.”
We will update you when we have more details.
