Billy Edwards Jr. accounted for three touchdowns and Tai Felton continued his hot start to the season in Maryland’s 27-13 victory against mistake-prone Virginia on Saturday night in Charlottesville, Va.

It was the 14th consecutive nonconference win for the Terrapins (2-1), the second-longest streak in the country behind Georgia’s 24-game run.

Edwards completed 28 of 43 passes for 263 yards and two scores and also rushed for a TD as Maryland dominated the second half, outscoring the Cavaliers (2-1) 20-0 after intermission.

Felton had nine catches for 117 yards and a touchdown. It was the third straight 100-yard game to start the season for Felton, who had 178 in the opener against UConn and 152 in the loss to Michigan State.

Anthony Colandrea was 21-of-37 passing for 247 yards and ran for a TD for the Cavaliers. He was responsible for three of their four turnovers with two interceptions and a fumble.

Virginia scored the only points of the first quarter on Will Bettridge’s 19-yard field goal. His 29-yarder doubled the Cavaliers’ lead to 6-0 midway through the second quarter.

After five punts and a missed field goal, the Terrapins took a brief 7-6 lead on Edwards’ 19-yard touchdown strike to Felton with 54 seconds remaining in the half.

That was plenty of time for Virginia. After a 39-yard completion to Tyler Neville, Colandrea scrambled 10 yards for a score and a 13-7 lead with one second left before halftime.

The momentum swung back to Maryland with 10 unanswered points in the third quarter. Edwards’ 26-yard TD pass to Kaden Prather and Jack Howes’ 37-yard field goal put the Terps on top 17-13.

Howes’ 33-yard field goal made it 20-13 for Maryland with 12:31 to play. Edwards’ 1-yard run extended the lead to 27-13 with 7:10 left.

Dante Trader Jr. and Jalen Huskey tallied interceptions and Donnell Brown and Quashon Fuller recovered fumbles for the Terrapins.
