PITTSBURGH (AP) — Kenny Pickett hit Lucas Krull for an 11-yard touchdown pass in overtime as No. 25 Pittsburgh held off North Carolina 30-23.  Pitt kept firm control on first place in the ACC’s Coastal Division with two weeks to go after blowing a 16-point lead before collecting itself in overtime behind Pickett.

North Carolina’s Sam Howell threw for 296 yards but his fourth-down heave in overtime was intercepted.

Golden Tornadoes stomp Bethany College 42-7!

The Geneva Golden Tornadoes defeated the Bethany College Bison 42-7 tonight. The game was very one sided game, it started when the Golden Tornadoes blocked a punt that resulted in a touchdown. After that it was all down hill for the Bison as they could not string together any good drives. The Golden Tornadoes scored 28 unanswered points in the first quarter, the second quarter the Bison were able to move the ball a little resulting in 7 points. And the Golden Tornadoes took a commanding 35-7 lead going into the half. The second half was a lot less exciting as both traded turnovers during the third and part of the fourth quarter. But, despite the fight the Bison put up it was not enough to overcome the Golden Tornadoes. The Bison move to 0-4 on the year and they will play Carnegie Mellon next week, and as for the Golden Tornadoes they move to 2-2 and will play Washington and Jefferson.
