Pitt survives Virginia Tech's disputed last-second kick to stay unbeaten
Pittsburgh defeated Virginia Tech 35-33 on Friday night in Blacksburg, surviving a controversial final play where the Hokies' 36-yard field goal attempt was ruled no good despite appearing to pass between the uprights. The loss dropped Virginia Tech to 4-1, while Pitt remains 5-0 and is poised for a top-25 ranking. The game featured a chaotic first half for Pitt, a late injury to starting quarterback Mason Heintschel, and a pivotal interception by Cameron Lindsey. Officials declined to review the kick, citing NCAA rules that prohibit reviewing field goals when the ball is higher than the top of the uprights.
