Colandrea's 3 TD throws lead Virginia to sixth straight home win against Duke, 30-27

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. -- , After a week when Virginia honored the memory of three players slain a year ago, and in which he made a quick trip to Louisville to see running back Perris Jones in the hospital after spinal surgery, coach Tony Elliott said his team did it right. The ceremonies were Monday and Monday night, and “we’re right back to work on Tuesday morning,” Elliott said. “And I can tell you and I’ve been around a lot of practice fields and I hadn’t felt what I felt on Tuesday with these guys, considering what they went through the day before, and then they brought it back Wednesday. And so I think that they understood that this week and every week going forward, you’re playing for something bigger than themselves.” Anthony Colandrea threw three touchdown passes and Virginia burned more than 5 minutes off the clock with a long, late drive and beat Duke 30-27 on Saturday.
