The Turning Point: Another Return

Related Topics: Kickoff (gridiron football)

Quadree Henderson provided Pitt with the spark they needed, as well as some breathing room, with a pivotal kick off return for the second week in a row.

In a 42-39 Pitt victory yesterday, it is hard to pinpoint exactly one play that turned the tide for good, but that’s our job and we’ll give it a shot. We could go the easy and lazy route and say Ryan Lewis’ game-clinching interception was it. We could go with DaeSean Hamilton’s drop right before that, which could have given Penn State a late lead. Instead though, we felt like, for the second week in a row, it should go to a Quadree Henderson kickoff return.
