CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. -- How does the old saying go? You can't win a game off the first two plays from scrimmage, but you can sure lose it?
Safe to say, that was falsified on Pitt's end on Saturday at Scott Stadium. And it only took 16 seconds.
In an unheralded sequence of plays, the Panthers jumped Virginia quarterback Brennan Armstrong for pick-sixes on the first two plays from scrimmage of the game, which would set the table for unsurmountable circumstances and give way for a 37-7 victory for the visitors, in their largest margin of victory this season.
