In that game he also threw for three touchdowns and ran for a team-best 89 yards which made him the only player since 2000 to pass for 225+ yards, rush for 70+ yards, and throw for 3+ touchdowns against Clemson despite Virginia losing 23–41. Armstrong was knocked out of the game in the second quarter against NC State with a concussion. Prior to his injury he went six of nine for 57 yards, the team ended up losing 21–38 in his absence. He would also miss their next game against Wake Forest due to the injury. Against No. 11 Miami, he threw for 181 yards and two touchdowns and rushed for 91 yards in a narrow 14–19 loss.

Against North Carolina, Armstrong set another Virginia record when he threw for 554 yards against the Tar Heels, which at the time was also the highest of the season up to that point. In three-straight games against Illinois, North Carolina, and Wake Forest he became the first Virginia quarterback to throw for 400 yards in three-straight games. Following a 30–28 win over Miami, Armstrong threw for 487 passing yards while erasing a seventeen-point fourth-quarter deficit in a 34–33 win over Louisville. In a game against BYU he suffered an injury after accounting for a total of six touchdowns in the team's 49–66 loss. In that game he broke the school's record for passing yards with an eight-yard completion to tight end Jelani Woods. He also broke the record for 300-yard passing games with his ninth of his career, passing Matt Schaub's eight games. The team would lose the final four games of the season, as Armstrong was injured, to Notre Dame 3–28, Armstrong returned for the team's game against Pittsburgh 38–48, and Virginia Tech 24–29 to finish at an even 6–6.

The next week he broke the school's career passing yards record with a seventeen yard completion to Lavel Davis Jr. Two weeks later he broke another one of Schaub's records as he threw for his 21st 200-yard game against Duke despite the team's loss.
