The Cavaliers (3-1, 2-0) took a 24-3 lead early in the fourth quarter on a two-yard touchdown run by Arlen Harris, which capped a 79-yard drive. Chris Douglas pulled Duke within two touchdowns with a two-yard run six minutes into the final quarter, but Virginia put away the contest on Matt Schaub's 15-yard TD pass to McMullen with 6:47 to play.
