Perfect world scenario: We smash them. London is fired after the season. UVA is so impressed that they hire Golden.
We shut them out. London is fired after the season. UVa is so impressed with our defense that they hire Doritos. Golden goes back to the well and hires his friend London to be DC and London brings with him an attacking 4-3 defense, Chip West, Mike Archer and some of those D-Line savages that grow out there in Virginia.
Um....London's background as a DC is running a 3-4. The same kind of 3-4 that Golden ran at UVA, and that NoD runs here now.
Um... Mike London doesn't run Al Golden's two-gap defense.

THE NAIL IN THE COFFIN:
"For Al Groh's nine seasons as head coach, Virginia's base defense was the 3-4.
Mike London replaced Groh after the 2009 season, and Reid took over as defensive coordinator. Virginia shifted to a 4-3 scheme, and several players changed positions, including Reynolds, Ausar Walcott, Matt Conrath and Cam Johnson."

Thanks for playing.
Go back and watch video of UVA playing when London took over AS THE DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR HIMSELF, numbnuts. He still ran multiple fronts, and most of it was 3-4. Need a refresher? Dig thru Chris Long's highlights from 2007 vs Maryland (with London as his DC), tell me what front they're running:

That looks REAL familiar.
LMAO at "the nail in the coffin"... You quoted London replacing Groh as HC, and hiring a guy in Reid that implemented 4-3 principles. All that means is that London hired a guy and let him implement the system that the DC wanted.
They now have Jon Tenuta as DC and he runs a 4-3, which explains the depth chart you tried to slap me in the face with, and missed. Look at half of our depth charts the past few years that listed us as a 4-3, but we were running 3-4 most of the time. That didn't mean ****.
There's no game to be played here. If London stepped down from HC to take a DC position, he'd likely run the same 3-4 bullsh1t that Golden/NoD have. That's why your idea was dumb to start with.
