Pittsburgh rallies from 14-point deficit, remains unbeaten with 35-33 victory over Virginia Tech
In a thrilling comeback, Pittsburgh secured a 35-33 victory over Virginia Tech on Friday, overcoming a 14-point deficit. Virginia Tech's John Love missed a crucial 36-yard field goal as time expired, allowing Pittsburgh to maintain their unbeaten record. Quarterback Holden Geriner, who entered the game, threw a touchdown pass, while Ja’Kyrian Turner added a rushing score.
Despite losing starting quarterback Mason Heintschel due to injury, Pittsburgh capitalized on Virginia Tech's four turnovers to secure the win. Virginia Tech, who controlled much of the first half, eventually unraveled in the second half, leading to their defeat. The Panthers now await further updates on Heintschel's injury, while Geriner excelled in his relief appearance.
