CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — Certain missed opportunities were too much to overcome, as North Carolina fell to Pittsburgh 34-24 on Saturday at Kenan Stadium. Pitt's playmaking duo of quarterback Eli Holstein and running back Desmond Reid proved to be too much for the Tar Heels' defense. Holstein finished 25-of-42 passing for a season-high 381 passing yards and four total touchdowns. Reid supplied 210 all-purpose yards (155 receiving, 55 rushing) and one touchdown.

The Panthers (4-0) are unbeaten through four games for the first time since 2000, back when they were playing football in the Big East Conference. The Big East, of course, has since eliminated football and Pitt joined the ACC in 2011. Pitt handled Kent State in the season opener (55-24), before knocking off a pair of Big 12 teams. The Panthers squeaked by on the road at Cincinnati (28-27), and won the Backyard Brawl at home over West Virginia (38-34). Pitt then blasted FCS program Youngstown State (73-17), and took a break last week with its first open date on the schedule.
Upper St. Clair faces yet another undefeated Allegheny Six foe, this time South Fayette
Oct. 4—With the regular season already half over, Upper St. Clair will likely face three undefeated teams in a row.
