Virginia came, saw, and--gave a thoroughly creditable account of itself Saturday, displaying an assortment of short, over-the-line forward passes that for the better part of the game baffled the University's second-string secondary defense and served to liven up for the gathering of supporters what was otherwise a comparatively unthrilling performance. Fourteen of the University's 24 points were registered in the second half, when the Virginians' strength was waning, and fresh Crimson substitutes gave the home team a decided advantage. Considering the cold weather, to which residents of Charlottesville are hardly acclimated, the Southerners' play...
...forward pass play of the Crimson was first-class. Only once, when Wales threw a pass at random straight into Witts' arms toward the close of the game, did there seem to be the slightest lack of precision.

That Coach Fisher was dissatisfied with the way that his team has been using the forward pass this season was shown by the fact that he kept his men continually trying this method of attack which resulted in the third tally. In the last few minutes of play, Wharton made a wonderful catch of a pass from Hamilton and scampered 10 yards across the goal line...
