Game Storylines• In a series long on history and color, Pitt and Notre Dame meet for the 71st time. The Panthers will be making their first visit to Notre Dame Stadium since 2012.

• Nine of the past 11 games be-tween Pitt and Notre Dame have been decided by single digits, including the most recent en-counter at Notre Dame Stadium. In that memorable 2012 affair, the Irish rallied from a 14-point fourth-quarter deficit to claim a 29-26 win in three overtimes.

• No. 5 Notre Dame is the latest highly ranked opponent for the Panthers. Pitt previously faced Top 15 challenges in Penn State (Sept. 8) and UCF (Sept. 29).

• Pitt is going against the grain ofPower 5 non-conference schedul-ing trends. Of the Panthers' fournon-ACC games in 2018, threeare against FBS opponents whose combined record this season is15-1 (4-1 Penn State, 5-0 UCFand 6-0 Notre Dame). Those teams were a combined 34-5 dur-ing the 2017 season.

• Pitt boasts a formidable senior tailback tandem in Qadree Ol-lison and Darrin Hall. The duo combined for 299 yards and three touchdowns in leading the Panthers to a pulsating 44-37 overtime victory over Syracuse last week.

• With 596 total rushing yards this season, Qadree Ollison ranks 18th nationally, while his average of 6.48 yards per carry ranks 22nd. Ollison is striving to become only the sixth player in Pitt history to achieve multiple 1,000-yard rushing seasons.

• Under Pat Narduzzi, Pitt is 14-5 when it rushes for at least 200 yards. The Panthers are averag-ing 203.8 yards on the ground this season, while Notre Dame is yielding just 127.8.

• Sophomore placekicker Alex Kessman is a long-distance scor-ing weapon for the Panthers. He owns four of the six longest field goals in Pitt history, including kicks of 55 and 54 yards in last week's Syracuse win.

√ The 2018 season marks the fourth for Pat Narduzzi as Pitt's head football coach. From 2015-17, the Panthers won 21 games, the most victories by a Pitt football coach in his initial three years since Jackie Sherrill (28 wins from 1977-79).

√ Pitt closed the 2017 season with a 24-14 victory over No. 2 Miami, the highest-ranked op-ponent the Panthers have ever defeated at home. Pitt snapped the nation’s longest active winning streak at 15 games by beating the Hurricanes.

√ Narduzzi is 2-0 as a head coach against teams ranked No. 2. In addition to the Miami victory in 2017, the Panthers defeated No. 2 Clemson, 43-42, in 2016. It was the Tigers' only loss that season as they finished with a 14-1 record and claimed the College Football Playoff national championship.

√ In 2016, Narduzzi's Panthers defeated two teams that finished in the top 5 of the final 2016 College Football Playoff rankings. Pitt defeated eventual national champion Clemson (43-42) and kept No. 5 Penn State out of the playoff field by defeating the Nittany Lions, 42-39. √ Twenty-four of Narduzzi's Pitt players have signed NFL contracts. The Panthers had five players selected in the 2017 NFL Draft and three more taken in 2018, marking Pitt’s most draft selections over a two-year span since 2003-04.

√ In 2016, Quadree Henderson earned consensus All-America status as a return specialist after leading the country in kickoff return touchdowns (three) and combined kick return yards (1,166). Additionally, guard Dorian Johnson also was a first team All-American under Narduzzi. √ In his debut campaign at Pitt in 2015, Narduzzi led the Panthers to an 8-4 regular-season record, their best 12-game mark since 2009, and a Mili-tary Bowl invitation. Pitt finished as the runner-up in the ACC Coastal Division with a 6-2 mark, its best conference record ever.

√ Pitt boasted the ACC’s top offensive and defen-sive newcomers in 2015. Safety Jordan Whitehead was named the league’s Overall and Defensive Rookie of the Year. Tailback Qadree Ollison was named the Offensive Rookie of the Year following a 1,000-yard rushing campaign.

√ Narduzzi arrived at Pitt following eight highly successful years as the defensive coordinator at Michigan State under Mark Dantonio. The Spar-tans were the only team to rank in the nation’s top 10 in total defense and rushing defense each season from 2011-14.

√ Michigan State boasted the nation’s top rush-ing defense in 2014, yielding just 88.5 yards per game. The Spartans finished third nationally with 34 turnovers gained and eighth in total defense, holding opponents to just 315.8 yards per con-test.

√ In 2014, the Spartans finished with a No. 5 national ranking and 11-2 record following a stir-ring 42-41 victory over Baylor in the AT&T Cotton Bowl. Narduzzi’s defense shut out the high-scor-ing Bears in the fourth quarter, opening the door for 21 unanswered points by Michigan State.

√ In 2013, Michigan State finished No. 3 in the country following a Big Ten title and 24-20 victory over No. 5 Stanford in the Rose Bowl. Narduzzi was named the 2013 recipient of the prestigious Broyles Award, annually presented to the country’s top assistant coach.

√ Narduzzi's decorated defensive players at Michigan State included first team All-Americans in cornerback Darqueze Dennard, safety Kurtis Drummond, linebacker Greg Jones and defensive tackle Jerel Worthy. Dennard was a unanimous All-American in 2013, becoming the first Michi-gan State cornerback to earn that distinction. He also was the school’s first winner of the Jim Thorpe Award, given to college football’s top defensive back.

√ Dennard was a first-round NFL Draft pick of the Cincinnati Bengals in 2014, the first Spartans defensive back taken in the initial round since 1961. In the 2015 draft, another Narduzzi pupil, Michigan State cornerback Trae Waynes, was a first-round pick of the Minnesota Vikings.

√ Prior to Michigan State, Narduzzi spent three years (2004-06) as defensive coordinator under Dantonio at Cincinnati, helping the Bearcats to a pair of bowl invitations. In 2003, Narduzzi was the defensive coordinator at Miami of Ohio under the late Terry Hoeppner. The RedHawks stormed to a 13-1 record that season, capturing the Mid-American Conference championship and defeat-ing nationally ranked Louisville in the GMAC Bowl to finish No. 10 in the Associated Press poll.

√ Narduzzi served as linebackers coach at Northern Illinois for three seasons (2000-02). NIU won a pair of MAC divisional titles during his tenure and in 2002 had the league’s top rushing defense. From 1993-99, Narduzzi coached at his alma mater, Rhode Island, serving as the Rams’ defensive coordinator his final two seasons. He began his coaching career at Miami of Ohio, working as a graduate assistant in 1990 and 1991, before earning his first full-time position as receivers coach for the 1992 season.

√ Narduzzi was a starting linebacker under his father, the late Bill Narduzzi, as a freshman at Youngstown State University in 1985 before transferring to Rhode Island, where he became a three-year starter for the Rams from 1987-89. Bill Narduzzi was head coach at YSU from 1975-85. He led the Penguins to two NCAA Division II play-off appearances, including the national champion-ship game in 1979, and twice was named the Ohio Valley Conference Coach of the Year. One of Bill's first coaching posts was as a freshman line coach at Pitt in 1962.

TEAM NOTESWORKING OVERTIME

Pitt outlasted Syracuse in overtime, 44-37, at Heinz Field on Oct. 6. The victory improved the Panthers' all-time OT record to 8-9. Pitt and Notre Dame have played in two memorable overtime con-tests, each occurring at Notre Dame Stadium. In 2008, the Panthers defeated the Irish, 36-33, in four overtimes, the longest game in each school's history. In 2012, Notre Dame claimed a 29-26 victory in three overtimes.

129 YEARS AND COUNTINGThe 2018 campaign marks the 129th football season in Pitt history. The Panthers, who played their inaugural season in 1890, have a 720-530-42 all-time record (.574). The program’s rich legacy in-cludes 92 first team All-Americans, 24 College Football Hall of Fam-ers, eight Pro Football Hall of Famers and nine national titles.

YOUR 2018 PITT TEAM CAPTAINSAs selected by their teammates, the captains for the 2018 Panthers are senior offensive lineman Alex Bookser, senior safety Dennis Briggs and senior linebacker Quintin Wirginis. Briggs was also elect-ed a captain as a junior in 2017. He becomes Pitt's first multiple-time captain since defensive tackle Aaron Donald in 2012-13.

ACTIVE DUTY FOR THREE TRUE FROSHThree true freshmen have seen active duty for Pitt thus far. On offense, wide receiver Shocky Jacques-Louis has played in all six games, earning three starting assignments, while running back Mychale Salahuddin has played in three contests. Defensively, cor-nerback Marquis Williams has seen action in three games.

MORE FRESH FACESFifteen redshirt freshmen have made their collegiate debuts this sea-son. That total includes seven players on offense (running back Todd Sibley Jr.; receivers Dontavius Butler-Jenkins and Michael Smith; offensive linemen Jerry Drake Jr., Gabe Houy and Carson Van Lynn; and tight end Grant Carrigan), six defensive players (cornerback Paris Ford; defensive linemen Deslin Alexandre and Jaylen Twyman; and linebackers Albert Tucker, Cam Bright and Kyle Nunn) and two specialists (punter Kirk Christodoulou and placekicker/holder Jake Scarton).

TOUGH NON-CONFERENCE TESTSPrior to the 2018 season, ESPN.com rated Pitt's non-conference schedule as the toughest in the country. "The top spot was a no-brainer," ESPN Senior Staff Writer Chris Low wrote of the Panthers. Of Pitt's four non-ACC games, three are against FBS opponents whose combined record this season is 15-1: Notre Dame (6-0), UCF (5-0) and Penn State (4-1). Those three teams went a combined 34-5 in 2017. Pitt hosted historic rival Penn State of the Big Ten on Sept. 8. The Nittany Lions were 11-2 last year. The Panthers played on the road at UCF (Sept. 29), which claimed a national title with a 13-0 record in 2017. The Panthers' final non-ACC game of 2018 will be in South Bend against Notre Dame (Oct. 13). The Fighting Irish were 10-3 last season.

RANKED FOES Four Pitt opponents appear in this week's Top 25 polls: Notre Dame (No. 5 Associated Press/No. 5 USA Today Coaches Poll), Penn State (No. 8/8), UCF (No. 10/9) and Miami (No. 16/15).

A KNACK FOR BEATING NO. 2 Under Coach Pat Narduzzi, Pitt is 2-0 against opponents ranked No. 2. In addition to the 24-14 win over Miami to close the 2017 season, Narduzzi's Panthers knocked off No. 3/2 Clemson, 43-42, in Death Valley on Nov. 12, 2016. It would be the lone blemish of the season for the Tigers, who would go on to win the national title with a 14-1 record.

CLOSING 2017 WITH A BIG "W" Pitt punctuated its 2017 season with an exclamation point, defeating No. 2 Miami at Heinz Field, 24-14, to knock the Hurricanes out of the College Football Playoff hunt. The Panthers limited Miami to 232 to-tal yards—and only 45 on the ground—while notching a season-high four sacks. The Hurricanes' rushing output was their lowest of the season while their total yardage was the second lowest. Offensively, Pitt was ignited by freshman quarterback Kenny Pickett, who in his first career start ran for two touchdowns and threw for another to hand Miami its first loss of the season. The No. 2 Hurricanes became the highest-ranked opponent the Panthers had ever beaten in Pittsburgh. Prior to the win over Miami, the highest-ranked foe Pitt had defeated at home was No. 3 Ford-ham, 13-0, at Pitt Stadium on Nov. 8, 1941. Pitt snapped the nation's longest active winning streak at 15 games by beating the Hurricanes.

TOP 3 FOES: BEWARE THE PANTHERS Pitt has actually won four consecutive games against top-3 teams when unranked dating back to the 2002 season. Three of those con-tests have been on the road.

OFFENSIVE NOTESOLLISON ROLLIN'

Qadree Ollison's rushing production as a senior ranks among the best ball-carriers in the ACC, as well as the country. Through six games, Ollison has run for 596 yards and five touchdowns on 92 car-ries (6.5 avg.). He is averaging 99.3 rush yards per contest.

ISN'T IT GRAND?Only one player on Pitt's 2018 roster can claim a 1,000-yard rushing season as a collegian: senior running back Qadree Ollison, who net-ted 1,121 yards in 2015 en route to earning ACC Offensive Rookie of the Year honors. Ollison will attempt to become just the sixth player in Pitt history to achieve multiple 1,000-yard rushing seasons before his eligibility expires. The last player to accomplish the feat was James Conner, who had 1,092 yards in 2016 and 1,765 yards in 2014. The other Panthers in this elite group are Tony Dorsett (four from 1973-76), Curvin Rich-ards (1988-89), LeSean McCoy (2007-08) and Dion Lewis (2009-10).

HALL MAKES MARKPitt's rushing attack is boasted by two formidable senior tailbacks. In addition to leading rusher Qadree Ollison, Darrin Hall also plays a prominent role and currently has 314 yards and four touchdowns on 48 attempts (6.5 avg.). Hall had a season-high 107 yards and two touchdowns on 17 car-ries (6.3 avg.) in the 44-37 overtime win over Syracuse. His TDs were critical to the final result: a seven-yard score that tied the game at 34 in the fourth quarter and a three-yard run that proved to be the game-winner in OT.

DARRIN DAZZLED AT DUKE IN 2017Darrin Hall achieved one of the most prolific rushing games in school history while breaking a century-old school record in Pitt's 24-17 victory at Duke last season (Oct. 21). Facing a Blue Devils rush defense that ranked No. 16 nationally (yielding 108 yards per game), Hall rambled for a career-high 254 yards and three touchdowns. He averaged a sensational 10.6 yards on 24 carries. Hall ripped off touchdown sprints of 79 and 92 yards. The latter score marked the longest touchdown run in Pitt history, eclipsing the 100-year-old record of 91 established in 1917 by George McLaren. Hall's third TD, a four-yard score with 10:48 left, gave Pitt the lead for good at 21-17.

A NEW STANDARDDarrin Hall's 92-yard touchdown run in Pitt's 24-17 win at Duke in 2017 is the longest in school history. Hall eclipsed a record that stood for 100 years: George McLaren's 91-yard scoring run against Syracuse on Oct. 20, 1917.

PICKETT'S MEMORABLE FIRST STARTIn the first start of his college career, then-freshman Kenny Pickett accounted for three touchdowns (two rushing and one passing) in engineering the Panthers' 24-14 upset of No. 2 Miami to close the 2017 season. Pickett completed 18-of-29 passes (62%) for 193 yards with zero interceptions and was also Pitt's second-leading rusher with 60 yards on 13 carries (4.6 avg.). Pickett's six-yard touchdown rush gave the Panthers a 10-7 lead right before intermission. Late in the third quarter he connected with Qadree Ollison on a five-yard shovel pass to increase the advantage to 17-7. Pickett's final TD proved to be the clincher—a perfectly executed bootleg on fourth down that the freshman took for a 22-yard score.

DEFENSIVE NOTESSTICKY FINGERS

Sophomore defensive end Rashad Weaver is tied for the national lead with three fumble recoveries. (Tied with Notre Dame corner-back Julian Love, Washington safety Taylor Rapp and Boise State cornerback Tyler Horton.) Weaver picked up two fumbles in the Sept. 8 Penn State game, returning one for 20 yards. He became the first Pitt player to recover two fumbles in a single game since linebacker Mike Caprara also had two against Penn State on Sept. 10, 2016. Weaver added another fumble recovery in the Sept. 15 victory over Georgia Tech. As a team, the Panthers rank 30th nationally and fifth in the ACC in fumble recoveries with five. Other Pitt players with recoveries this season are junior cornerback Dane Jackson (against Syracuse, re-turned 35 yards for a touchdown) and redshirt freshman linebacker Cam Bright (at North Carolina).

IT'S BEEN AWHILEShould defensive end Rashad Weaver recover a fourth fumble this season, it would be the first time in 37 years a Pitt player achieved that feat. The last time it occurred was during the 1981 season when defensive end Michael Woods collected a total of five fumble recover-ies.

KNOCK IT LOOSEThe Panthers also have a player among the national leaders in forced fumbles. Cornerback Dane Jackson has two forced fumbles in five games played this season. His average of 0.40 forced fumbles per contest ranks second in the ACC and 15th nationally.

RARE GLORYRare is the time an interior lineman gets the glory of an intercep-tion but it happened in the Panthers' 44-37 overtime victory over Syracuse on Oct. 6. Junior defensive tackle Amir Watts had the first interception of his career when he snagged an Eric Dungey pass over the middle. The Panthers parlayed the pick into a field goal and 20-14 second-quarter lead. It was the first interception by a Pitt interior defensive lineman since Chas Alecxih against Buffalo on Sept. 3, 2011.

MEMORABLE FIRST PICK FOR COLEMANSophomore safety Therran Coleman made the game-clinching play in Pitt's 44-37 win over Syracuse (Oct. 6) when he intercepted Eric Dungey in the end zone in overtime. Coleman snatched Dungey's pass away from Orange receiver Nykeim Johnson to end the game. It was the first interception of Coleman's collegiate career.

BIG INT RETURNJunior safety Damar Hamlin made a key play in Pitt's season-opening 33-7 win over Albany when he halted the Great Danes' first drive with an interception at the Pitt 2. Hamlin returned the pick 79 yards, setting up the Panthers' second touchdown for an early 13-0 lead. The 79-yard interception return marked Pitt’s longest since Octo-ber 16, 2010, when Ricky Gary had an 80-yard return for a score at Syracuse.

TDS BY THE “D” Pitt has scored nine defensive touchdowns under Pat Narduzzi, in-cluding one this season (cornerback Dane Jackson's 35-yard fumble return against Syracuse). The Pitt defense has scored 33 touchdowns since the 2001 season. The Panthers are 27-4 when scoring at least one defensive TD in a game during that span. (The losses occurred against Notre Dame and Navy in 2015, and Oklahoma State in 2016 and 2017.)

SPECIAL TEAMS NOTESKESSMAN GETS HIS KICKS

Sophomore placekicker Alex Kessman played a critical role in Pitt's 44-37 overtime win over Syracuse (Oct. 6). Kessman accounted for a career-high 14 points and was perfect on each of his eight kicks (3-for-3 field goals and 5-for-5 PATs). Kessman's initial two field goals came from 54 and 55 yards, the latter kick setting a Heinz Field record (NFL and college). His final field goal was a 45-yarder on a sloppy turf that tied the game at 37 with eight seconds to go in regulation.

BIG FOOTAlex Kessman has four of the six longest field goals in school history: a Pitt record-tying 56-yarder, two 55-yard kicks and a 54-yarder. Since 1961 (57 years), Pitt has made only 16 field goals of 50 yards or more. Kessman is responsible for four of them.

PITT GAME NOTES & ANECDOTESLONGEST EVER AT HEINZ

Alex Kessman can now claim the longest field goal at Heinz Field by either a professional or collegian. On a notoriously difficult track for kickers, his 55-yarder eclipsed the prior Heinz record of 54 set by Old Dominion’s Jarod Brown in 2013 against Pitt. The longest NFL field goal at Heinz Field is 53 yards by Chris Boswell (Pittsburgh Steelers) and Dan Bailey (Dallas Cowboys).

TWO OF THE NATION'S LONGEST KICKS Alex Kessman owns two of the longest field goals made in college football during the 2018 season: a 55-yard kick and 54-yarder, both against Syracuse on Oct. 6.

OPENING THE 2018 SEASON IN STYLEPitt opened the 2018 season in explosive fashion against Albany when junior receiver Maurice Ffrench returned the game’s opening kickoff for a 91-yard touchdown. It was the first kick return score of his collegiate career and the first time on record that the Panthers opened a season with a kickoff return TD. Ffrench's return marked the second time in 27 games Pitt returned the game's opening kickoff for a score. The previous occasion was on Dec. 28, 2015, when Quadree Henderson had a 100-yard return against Navy in the Military Bowl.

FFRENCH AMONG TOP KICK RETURNERS Maurice Ffrench is the lone ACC player to return a kickoff for a touchdown this season. Ffrench additionally ranks first in the ACC (16th nationally) with a 27.0-yard kickoff return average. He has eight total returns for 216 yards, including his 91-yard return for a touchdown in the opener against Albany. As a team, the Panthers rank fourth in the ACC and 35th nationally with a 23.09 average (11 for 254).

PITT BLOCK PARTY Pitt has 55 blocked kicks since the 2000 season. That total includes 10 blocks during Pat Narduzzi's tenure as Pitt head coach (since 2015).

TWO SPECIAL TEAMS "HOUSE CALLS" Pitt is the only team in the ACC to score return touchdowns on both a kickoff and punt this season. Maurice Ffrench is responsible for the kick return TD, a 91-yarder against Albany (Sept. 1) on the opening kickoff of the 2018 season. The punt return touchdown was scored by Rafael Araujo-Lopes at UCF (Sept. 29). Araujo-Lopes took a punt 86 yards for a score, marking the Panthers' longest punt return in at least four decades. (The Pitt record for longest punt return is a 90-yarder for a score by Jimmy Joe Robinson against Penn State in 1945.)

ARAUJO-LOPES OWNS FOURTH-LONGEST PUNT RETURNRafael Araujo-Lopes owns the nation's fourth-longest punt return of the 2018 season: his 86-yard touchdown at UCF on Sept. 29. It is also the longest in the ACC this year.

CHRISTODOULOU MAKES AMERICAN DEBUTRedshirt freshman punter Kirk Christodoulou, in his first active sea-son at Pitt, is averaging 38.8 yards on 31 punts. He has a season long of 56 yards (against Albany) and has placed eight inside the 20-yard line. Seven of his punts have resulted in a fair catch. The 2018 season not only marks Christodoulou's collegiate debut but also his first official game action in America. A native of Australia, Christodoulou enrolled at the University of Pittsburgh in January 2017. He was a standout Australian rules foot-ball player before embarking on his goal to play college football in the United States. Christodoulou worked with the renowned Prokick Australia program that has produced many successful collegiate and NFL punters. Prokick Australia’s “exports” include Pittsburgh Steelers punter Jordan Berry and all three 2016 Ray Guy Award finalists: winner Mitch Wishnowsky (Utah) as well as Michael Dickson (Texas; now with the Seattle Seahawks) and Cameron Johnston (Ohio State; now with the Philadelphia Eagles).

2018 GAME-BY-GAME REVIEW

Pitt rolled past visiting Albany, 33-7, in the 2018 season opener for both teams…the Panthers seized control at the opening kickoff when Maurice Ffrench had a 91-yard return for a touchdown…it was the first kick return score of his collegiate career and marked Pitt’s first game-opening kickoff return TD since 2015 (Quadree Henderson, 100-yard return vs. Navy in the Military Bowl)...it was the first sea-son-opening kick return TD by Pitt on record...Kenny Pickett, making his second career start, finished the first half 13 of 13 for 129 yards and two TDs..his first incompletion came on his initial attempt of the second half when he threw the ball away under pressure…Pickett fin-ished 16-of-22 passing for 154 yards with two TDs and one INT…he additionally rushed for 42 yards on six carries and a score…Pitt piled up 238 yards on the ground, led by Qadree Ollison’s game-high 73 on seven carries (10.4 avg.)…the Great Danes mustered only 60 rushing yards…the Panthers collected five sacks for losses totaling 33 yards…tackle Keyshon Camp had a personal-high two sacks…Pitt moved to 16-1 all-time against FCS opponents…the Panthers improved to 4-0 in opening contests under Pat Narduzzi.

PITT 33 ALBANY 7Sept. 1, 2018 • Heinz Field • 34,486

Penalties, special teams mistakes, turnovers and a poor second-half showing cost Pitt in a 51-6 loss to rival Penn State...in front of a sold-out crowd at Heinz Field, the Nittany Lions won in Pittsburgh for the first time since 1998, snapping Pitt's two-game home winning streak against Penn State...the 99th meeting between the in-state foes saw Pitt (1-1) control play for much of the first half thanks to 214 rushing yards and 19:06 time of possession in the opening 30 minutes...how-ever, the Panthers couldn't capitalize on their opportunities, scoring just six points from three red-zone trips...two first-half touchdowns from KJ Hamler put Penn State (2-0) ahead 14-6 at the intermission, and the Nittany Lions would pull away in the second half...the Pan-thers were penalized 14 times for 116 yards and committed three turnovers that led to 14 points for the visitors...Pitt tailback Qadree Ollison had his first 100-yard rushing game since 2015, finishing with 119 yards on 21 carries with a score...on defense, MLB Quintin Wirgi-nis posted career-best marks with nine tackles, 2.5 TFLs and a sack.

Pitt seized a 21-0 intermission lead over Georgia Tech and then held off the Yellow Jackets to claim a 24-19 win in the ACC opener for both teams…Qadree Ollison was a workhorse for Pitt’s offense, rushing for 91 yards and two touchdowns…Kenny Pickett threw for a season-high 197 yards with an interception on 16-of-23 passing…his top target was Rafael Araujo-Lopes, who hauled in a season-high six catches for 45 yards...Pickett also found Taysir Mack four times for 95 yards, including a personal-long 60-yard catch for Mack off a flea flicker to set up Pitt's third touchdown…the Panthers’ defense did an effective job corralling Georgia Tech’s triple option and lim-ited the visitors to just 4 of 13 on third down…Yellow Jackets QB TaQuon Marshall netted a game-high 103 yards but needed 28 car-ries to do so and only averaged 3.7 yards per rush…Georgia Tech finished with 386 yards, 99 of which came on its final drive of the game…DE Rashad Weaver totaled seven tackles and a fumble recov-ery, his third of the season…safety Damar Hamlin also had seven stops and a career-high two TFLs…Pat Narduzzi improved to 3-1 against the Yellow Jackets...the Panthers (2-1, 1-0) won their ACC opener for the first time since 2015…Georgia Tech fell to 1-2 overall and 0-1 in the ACC.

Pitt’s struggles against North Carolina continued in a 38-35 loss at Chapel Hill...the Panthers (2-2, 1-1) fell despite holding a 28-21 halftime advantage...the Tar Heels (1-2, 1-0) seized control with 17 unanswered points in the third quarter...a 16-yard touchdown pass from Kenny Pickett to Maurice Ffrench with 3:12 left cut the deficit to three but North Carolina closed out the game with two first down runs...Pitt posted 228 rushing yards and averaged a healthy 6.3 yards per carry...Darrin Hall ran for 84 yards on just six carries, highlighted by a 65-yard TD burst...Qadree Ollison also rushed for 72 yards on 12 attempts with a score...but the Panthers were ultimately upstaged by Tar Heels quarterback Nathan Elliott, who passed for 313 yards and two touchdowns, and tailback Antonio Williams, who netted 114 yards and a pair of scores on the ground...a strong UNC pass rush pro-duced three quarterback sacks and five additional hurries...it was the Panthers’ sixth straight loss to North Carolina—each by single digits.

Playing its second consecutive road game, Pitt could not contain explosive UCF and dropped a 45-14 decision in Orlando...the Knights, ranked as high as No. 13 nationally, improved to 4-0 on the season and extended the nation’s longest active winning streak to 17 games...quarterback McKenzie Milton accounted for all six UCF touchdowns, throwing four and rushing for two more...he connected on 18-of-34 passes for 328 yards...Milton’s performance spurred the Knights on to 568 total yards...the Panthers were bottled up on offense for most of the afternoon and managed just 272 yards...Pitt’s first touchdown was a special teams gem, an 86-yard punt return by Rafael Araujo-Lopes...the punt return was Pitt’s longest in at least four decades and made it 14-7 in the first quarter...but that would be as close as the Panthers would get as UCF scored 31 unanswered points...Pitt (2-3) hurt its own cause by piling up 11 penalties for 125 yards...two of those penalties wiped out interceptions, including a theft by Damar Hamlin that was returned 88 yards to the UCF 3 before being wiped out by a roughing-the-passer penalty...safety Jazzee Stocker had a ca-reer-high nine tackles, while linebacker Oluwaseun Idowu compiled seven stops, two TFLs and a sack.

Pitt survived an exciting tilt with Syracuse—and a 75-minute weather delay—to earn a 44-37 overtime victory on Homecoming...rallying from a 14-0 deficit, Pitt defeated the Orange for the eighth straight time at Heinz Field...a 69-yard run by Qadree Ollison and 35-yard fumble return by Dane Jackson in quick succession erased the early hole, and a 68-yard TD catch by Rafael Araujo-Lopes put Pitt ahead, 27-17...however, Syracuse rallied after the second-half delay, and the Panthers needed a late 45-yard field goal by Alex Kessman to force OT...Kessman also converted a Heinz Field record 55-yard FG and a 54-yarder...Darrin Hall scored the go-ahead TD in overtime before Therran Coleman's first career interception dramatically ended the game...Ollison (192 yards, 1 TD) and Hall (107 yards, 2 TDs) gave Pitt two 100-yard rushers for the first time since 2016...Pitt (3-3, 2-1) im-proved to 8-9 all-time in OT...the Orange (4-2, 1-2) remained winless in Pittsburgh since 2001.
