The University of Virginia (UVA), a 24-point underdog, pulled off a stunning upset against No. 10 North Carolina, handing them their first loss of the season with a 31-27 victory on the road. UVA's Mike Hollins scored three rushing touchdowns, leading the team to victory. This win marked UVA's first victory against an AP top-10 team since 2005 and their first win against an AP top-10 team on the road ever. UVA's defense made a crucial fourth-down stop, allowing the offense to secure the win. The loss for UNC was considered an epic defeat, while UVA's performance was highly praised.
The "basketball season" fans are the worst type of UNC fans, even if said in jest. I want UNC football to consistently win big. I still think this UNC team is very good - can go 11-1 and play for the ACC title Had plenty of chances to beat UVa. Embarrassing to lose that game
There's no denying that #UVA has improved running the ball and rushing the passer. And clearly the 'Hoos are ready to fight in the second half of the season. What else did we learn from the 31-27 upset of No. 10 North Carolina? https://t.co/MFuxRVTlUK
UNC really lost to UVA at home, lol.
Meanwhile UNC lost to UVa, the Virginia of Iowas. https://t.co/eXo7TW5kSi

This will get talked about as an epic UNC loss… but holy hell, what a performance from Virginia.
UVA picks off undefeated UNC!!! The Hoos are gonna do it!!!
What a win for UVA!
No. 10 UNC on the cusp of losing at home to UVA. They trail 31-27 with 2:17 to go and have just one time out. UVA ball on first-and-10.
Undefeated top 10 UNC trailing late to a UVA team with 0 FBS wins… on the CW. https://t.co/0TmutytEKX
#UVA's defense with a huge hold on fourth down and the offense, having a strong night running the ball, has the chance to put this one away. Hoos lead 31-27 with 3:12 to go on the road against No. 10 UNC.
Virginia could have gone up by 11 against North Carolina and then this happened. Now UNC looks like they’re about to take the lead https://t.co/aJTpkaAXjP
Virginia was a couple of yards away from a two TD lead with 5 minutes left. Fumbled through the end zone and now UNC is in UVA territory.
Hahahaha. Virginia was about to go up 11 and fumbled through the end zone.
Wow UNC really gonna lose to this team?
As Virginia tries to upset No. 10 UNC in Chapel Hill ... UVA has: • Not won against an AP top-10 team since 2005 against FSU, second-longest active drought among P5 teams • Not won against an AP top-10 team on the road ... ever
