Twitter Reaction To Pitt’s Win Over Virginia, Becoming Bowl Eligible

Thanks to a quick start and another dominating performance by their defense, the Pitt Panthers beat Virginia, 37-7, and once again become bowl eligible.

Pitt now holds a record of 6-4 with two games remaining against Duke and the season-finale at Miami. So, despite a rough patch in the middle of the season against Georgia Tech, Louisville and North Carolina, Pitt will have a chance to finish the season with 9 wins.

The Pitt defense finished the day by sacking Virginia quarterback Brennan Armstrong 8 times, while offensively, Izzy Abanikanda rushed for 121 yards and Bub Means had 3 catches for 90 yards and a TD.

That’s why Morgan translates better to the #nfl than Haba. He’s simply faster and has a future at OLB at the next level.

Pitt drubbed Virginia. I thought Pitt's LB play continues to improve, Kedon Slovis maybe played his best all-around game, and Pitt is on the upswing.

A strong finish to the season is extremely important. pic.twitter.com/XyY5kdSQ2w

Calijah Kancey is so powerful. Like poetry in motion today. Destroying everyone across from him. #H2P 🟡🔵

I wonder if Paul Chryst smiled if he heard this: Pitt penalized 2day for having 2 guys wearing No. 22 on field — Vince Davis and P.J. O'Brien. Almost 10 years ago to the day, Notre Dame had 2 guys wearing No. 2 on the field when Pitt missed decisive FG in OT. Pitt lost in 3 OTs.
