It was not a “must-win” in the eyes of head coach Pat Narduzzi, but the 22nd-ranked Pitt Panthers still had something to prove in the national spotlight against nonconference foe No. 9 Notre Dame with ESPN’s GameDay on hand and a retirement ceremony for legend Aaron Donald.

Narduzzi is now 0-5 against Notre Dame and has been outscored 140-25 in the last three meetings with the Fighting Irish.
