Qadree Ollison makes history in final game at Heinz Field

Pitt running back Qadree Ollison had a day to remember in his team’s 52-22 rout of Virginia Tech on Saturday, as he ran for a career-high 235 yards and a career-high three touchdowns on just 16 carries. Much of that came on a single touchdown run in the fourth quarter from Pitt’s 3-yard line that went 97 yards, setting a record for the longest rushing play in program history.

During that play, quarterback Kenny Pickett handed the ball off to Ollison in Pitt’s end zone, and he burst through a hole on the right side of the line formed in part by fullback George Aston and offensive linemen Connor Dintino and Bryce Hargrove.
