It came down to the wire for the Pitt Panthers, but Pat Narduzzi was finally able to claim his first bowl win since taking over as head coach with a 34-30 win over Eastern Michigan in the Quick Lane Bowl. QB Kenny Pickett found Taysir Mack on a 25 yard touchdown pass with just 47 seconds to go in the 4th.
Pickett finished 27 for 39, passing for 361 yards including the longest passing touchdown in Pitt history…a 96 yard pass to Maurice Ffrench.
