Virginia’s Armstrong Opens Game vs. Pitt With Back-to-Back Pick-Sixes (Video)

Related Topics: Virginia

Considering Virginia received the opening kickoff in Saturday’s game against Pitt, their offensive start could not have gone worse. Cavaliers quarterback Brennan Armstrong immediately threw a pick-six on the first play from scrimmage, giving the Panthers a 7–0 lead.

Somehow, things only got worse from there. On the very next offensive play, Armstrong threw another pick-six, and all of a sudden Pitt was up 14–0 just 16 seconds into the game without ever getting the ball on offense. For Armstrong, it is probably the worst possible start to a game for a quarterback to have.
