One of the interesting non-conference battles on Saturday turned out to be extremely fun as the No. 24 Tennessee Volunteers took down the No. 17 Pitt Panthers with a 34-27 overtime victory. Vols quarterback Hendon Hooker ended up tossing the winning score in the extra frame, a 28-yard strike to Cedric Tillman.
Both teams traded haymakers throughout this showdown at Heinz Field Acrisure Stadium and included highlights like Pitt tight end Gavin Bartholomew hurdling a defender on the way to a touchdown. A major turning point came right before the second half when Panthers quarterback Kedon Slovis went down with an injury right before halftime, replaced by backup Nick Patti in the second half.
More to come.
