The Pittsburgh Panthers have made headlines with the announcement of true freshman quarterback Mason Heintschel starting against Boston College. After benching Eli Holstein, Heintschel showcased his talent in his first start, throwing four touchdown passes and leading the team to a dominant 48-7 victory. This win marks a significant moment for Pitt, who had previously been struggling in the ACC, as Boston College faced its fourth consecutive defeat. Head coach Pat Narduzzi’s decision to start Heintschel reflects a shift in strategy as the Panthers seek to solidify their quarterback position moving forward.
