Cincinnati Bearcats football vs. Pitt Panthers today: Live updates, highlights from Week 2 game

It once was the “River City Rivalry” involving a paddlewheel trophy. Today it’s a pair of former Big East teams trying to avoid the lackluster 3-9 seasons they experienced a year ago.

Brendan Sorsby shines for Cincinnati Bearcats in Week 1

The Cincinnati Bearcats opened up with a 38-20 win at home over Towson with Indiana transfer quarterback Brendan Sorsby throwing for 383 yards and two touchdowns while running for two more. That earned him Big 12 Newcomer of the Week honors.

Brendan Sorsby led the Cincinnati Bearcats to a 38-20 win over Towson in Week 1 with 383 passing yards for two touchdowns, plus he ran for two scores.

Transfer Pitt Panthers deliver vs. Kent State

In Pittsburgh, it was Alabama transfer Eli Holstein throwing for 336 yards and three scores in his college debut, earning him Atlantic Coast Conference Rookie of the Week. Western Carolina transfer running back Desmond Reid also had a stellar debut for the Panthers with 235 all-purpose yards (145 rushing plus a 78-yard punt return for a touchdown). Pitt rallied from a 28-21 lead early in the second half to win 55-24.

Cincinnati Bearcats welcome back Dontay Corleone

The Bearcats hope to stuff Pitt’s run as they get nose tackle Dontay Corleone back. Corleone had been limited due to a blood clot condition discovered in June. UC Sports Medicine cleared him to play this week. UC will also honor their 2008 Big East championship team coached by current LSU coach Brian Kelly at the game.
