For players on the UVA football team not used to Atlantic Coast weather, the first three games have certainly been an eye-opener. Quarterback Bryce Perkins, who was in Arizona for the beginning of his college football career, admitted, "I've never been around rain. I was shocked." We'll see how the weather holds up this weekend when Louisville comes to town.
