Pitt didn't throttle MAC opponent Akron tonight, but with a 24-7 win, you'll take it, right? After all, things could have been worse.
The big news out of today was the quarterback play, obviously. The Panthers started Chad Voytik but he was on a very short leash. He didn't play particularly bad (6-8 for 32 yards while leading the team on a touchdown drive), but as promised, head coach Pat Narduzzi got backup Nathan Peterman in there early. After tossing a nice touchdown pass to J.P. Holtz, he was in there for good and played the entire second half.
