Pittsburgh Panthers Game Notes
Christian Veilleux was 12-for-26 passing for 200 yards and two touchdowns while rushing four times for 17 yards during Saturday’s 38-21 win versus Louisville. This was Veilleux’s first start after taking over Phil Jurkovec as the primary signal caller. In a matchup where the Panthers were heavy underdogs, the redshirt sophomore quarterback completed less than 50 percent of his throws but connected with his receivers for two touchdowns, leading the team in a major upset against Louisville. He will look to carry this momentum over to Saturday’s game against Wake Forest.
Notre Dame Fighting Irish Game Notes
Sam Hartman did not have to do a lot against USC as he completed 13-of-20 for 126 yards and two touchdowns in the 48-20 win over the Trojans on Saturday night. The Irish defense/special teams did most of the damage as the Notre Dame offense was not on the field that much. The senior also added a run for 12 yards. After the bye week coming up, Notre Dame takes on Pittsburgh on Oct. 28. The Panthers’ defense is in the top quarter against the pass in the country, but Louisville put up more than 300 passing yards against Pittsburgh on Oct. 14.
