Heintschel passes for 6 touchdowns as Pitt improves to 4-0 with 59-0 win over Bucknell

PITTSBURGH -- , Mason Heintschel passed for 403 yards and six touchdowns, and Pittsburgh remained perfect by rolling past Bucknell 59-0 on Saturday. The Panthers (4-0) reached the end zone on each of their first five drives, as Heintschel spread the ball around on an afternoon that Pitt tried to fine-tune some things before heading into the teeth of its ACC schedule. Heintschel completed 29 of 37 in just over two quarters of work. The sophomore connected with nine different receivers. His six scoring throws fell one short of the ACC and program record of seven he set in a season-opening romp over Miami (Ohio) earlier this month. Backups Holden Geriner and Corey Dailey also threw for touchdowns. The eight touchdown passes combined marked a program record on a day Pitt gained 766 total yards.
