Pitt senior Chris Blewitt wasn't having the best game, admittedly. He flubbed an extra point earlier in the game and after the team failed on a two-point conversion, that miss loomed large. Blewitt also had a chance to help his team just before halftime with a field goal, but a line drive kick ended up squarely in the back of a lineman.
Despite all of that, Pitt put him position to again come up big. With a minute left in the game, the team drove down into field goal position, setting him up for a long 48-yard attempt.
