FIRST QUARTER
3 players already slipped on a play for Pitt. Odd
— JD Schroeder (@Sta7ic) September 5, 2025
YSU doesn't seem to having any issues with footing.
— Chris Peak (@PantherLair) September 5, 2025
This looks eerily familiar...

Hat trick for Grigsby, gets sack on third down. Made plays on all three YSU snaps. Also, that's his second sack.
— Jerry DiPaola (@JDiPaola_Trib) September 5, 2025
Grigsby is having himself a GAME! Two sacks already! #H2P

James Conner be like... #PittIsIt pic.twitter.com/1EBikkibbh
— Pitt Football (@GoPittFootball) September 5, 2025
So I'm going with Narduzzi wanted Peterman to get reps in meaningful time instead of against a spent defense... I hope

James Conner receiving some attention from the trainers on the #Pitt sideline

BECAUSE PITT IS BAD YET MY TEAM CAN'T SCORE ANY POINTS https://t.co/AtKbWd3fJ9
— Fake Bo Pelini (@FauxPelini) September 5, 2025
Ouch! Voytik threw a bad one for a Pick-Six. Pitt now leads 17-13.
— Ray Porter Jr. (@urbanmediaRay) September 5, 2025
Yup. Pitt gotta Pitt.
— PittCabe (@PittCabe) September 5, 2025
BUT THEN 
They keep testing Maddox and Maddox keeps winning.

THIRD QUARTER
It's just never, ever easy.
— Gavin Williams (@GavWill13) September 5, 2025
YSU with a sack and fumble recovery. The play is under review. If it stands, YSU will have the ball at the Pitt 9.
— Pitt Football (@GoPittFootball) September 5, 2025
Nice to see Bo continuing his tradition of losing it on his coaches at Youngstown
— Renny Vandewege (@RennyV) September 5, 2025
Voytik has been Youngstown State's best player

And Blewitt misses for Pitt. There're a couple jokes in there
— Adam Kowalski (@AdamK_93) September 5, 2025
His name is Blewitt? Not a good thing for an athlete.. maybe even worse for a neuro - surgeon. .
— Todd Iams (@toddiams3) September 5, 2025

Ollison though

FOURTH QUARTER
It's 109 degrees out at 3:45pm on a Saturday. It's the start of the 4th quarter of your team's home opener. Let's go sit in a bus!! #Pitt
— Mike Drakulich (@PghSportsNation) September 5, 2025
The irony of seeing these #4Quarters shirts already back on campus... #Pitt
— Matthew Johnson (@MattyJ_5) September 5, 2025
THEY RAN THE GUYS RUNNING INTO EACH OTHER FOR A TD PLAY AGAIN
— all-american zach (@CzarOfPgh) September 5, 2025
The lol is really the key part here. https://t.co/jLN0wnsNeg
— Anson Whaley (@AnsonWhaley) September 5, 2025
Qadree Ollison goes BEAST MODE and set Chad Voytik up for a 1 yard QB sneak for a touchdown! 45-30 Pitt with 4:38 left in the game! #H2P
— The Panther Pitt (@ThePantherPitt) September 5, 2025
Ollison is spectacular. So is Chris James. So is James Conner obviously. And then there's Rachid Ibrahim back next year. Wow.
— Corey Cohen (@CoreyECohen) September 5, 2025
Apparently the defense is as #4Quarters as the student section.
— PittScript (@PittScript) September 5, 2025
FINAL: YOUNGSTOWN STATE 37, PITT 45
Pitt ends the game with a sack and wins 45-37! #H2P

The layers of the earth are the crust, the mantle, the outer core, the pulverized Christian Hackenberg, and the inner core.

Penn State dude just stood up at the bar and spiked his phone.
— Sean Gentille (@seangentille) September 5, 2025
Christian Hackenberg got sacked on a 2-man rush, which pretty much sums up Penn State's day: http://t.co/pJ50vJy6Ls pic.twitter.com/Ic6mjnoodu
— Lost Lettermen (@LostLettermen) September 5, 2025
Penn State isn't just losing they're getting wrecked
— JD Schroeder (@Sta7ic) September 5, 2025
They have to play Michigan State and Ohio State on the road. Faking your own death is an OPTION, Christian Hackenberg.
— OLIVER 3STACKS (@edsbs) September 5, 2025
.@CoachHand Nice job today coach.
