Offensive linemen in sixth year Ryan Jacoby and redshirt senior Branson Taylor both suffered injuries early in the win over the Golden Bears. The Panthers relied on sixth year Jason Collier Jr. in place of Jacoby at left guard and redshirt junior Terrence Enos Jr. in place of Taylor at left tackle.

If these are serious injuries for both Jacoby and Taylor, expect both Enos and Collier to play most of the snaps the rest of the season.

Sophomore Braylan Lovelace played the most snaps at linebacker with fellow sophomore Rasheem Biles out for the game.

Senior defensive back Donovan McMillon played the most snaps of anyone with 85 at safety. Lovelace came in second with 80 snaps and redshirt senior defensive back Rashad Battle had 80 snaps at cornerback.

Redshirt sophomore Sean FitzSimmons earned his second start of the season and played the most snaps at defensive tackle with 44.

Pitt will have this week off and return to face rival Syracuse at home on Oct. 24 at 7:30 p.m. at home.
