In a game that was somehow even more demoralizing than the loss to North Carolina last Saturday, the Virginia Cavaliers dropped their second ACC contest of the season in embarrassing fashion to the Wake Forest Demon Deacons, 37-17.
Brennan Armstrong was impressive for the fourth straight week as he threw for 407 yards on 33/59 passing along with a pair of touchdowns and 33 rushing yards. But, following the trend from last Saturday, he had little to no help from both his running game and defense.
That defense got off to a less than ideal start to the game as the Demon Deacons fired off an efficient nine play, 2:09, 75-yard drive capped in a wide open 39-yard touchdown catch for Taylor Morin as the ‘Hoos paid for a blatant breakdown in the secondary.
