Pitt (6-0) and Syracuse (5-1) met for a huge ACC contest on Thursday night, and the No. 19-ranked Panthers delivered quite an emphatic statement in the first half. The Pitt defense intercepted Syracuse quarterback Kyle McCord four times, returning three of them for touchdowns.
The turnover parade started on Syracuse’s opening possession when Rasheem Biles jumped an out route and returned it 35 yards for the game’s first score.
