14 2012 GAME-BY-GAME REVIEW

Youngstown State 31 Pitt 17 Sept. 1, 2012 • Heinz Field • 40,837 Kurt Hess passed for 154 yards and two touchdowns as Youngstown State spoiled Paul Chryst’s Pitt head coaching debut...Pitt lost to a Football Championship Subdivision foe for the first time in 11 games...facing a YSU offense that returned 11 starters, Pitt’s defense struggled against the Penguins’ precise and efficient spread attack... YSU converted 11-of-16 third downs and held the ball for more than 35 minutes....the Panthers had eight new starters on the defensive side of the ball...the Penguins scored on their first two possessions en route to a 14-10 halftime lead, putting together scoring drives of 79 and 92 yards...YSU opened the third quarter with a 71-yard TD drive capped by a 23-yard gadget-play pass from running back Jamaine Cook to Will Shaw for a 21-10 lead...Pitt would never draw within single digits again...the game marked the return of Pitt run- ning back Ray Graham, who had not played since the previous Oc- tober due to a knee injury...Graham started the contest and rushed for 71 yards on 14 carries...kickoff was delayed 30 minutes due to lightning in the area.
