USC-Virginia pregame

Sophomore cornerback Ras-I Dowling is not in uniform for Virginia and will be replaced in the starting lineup by Chase Minniefield, a redshirt freshman playing in his first college game.

Minniefield is the son of former NFL cornerback Frank Minniefield, who played for the Cleveland Browns when UVa coach Al Groh was a Browns' defensive assistant.

Groh's only mention of a Dowling injury came two weeks ago, when Groh said Dowling had a sore leg that had limited his running.
