In the upcoming Week 10 matchup, No. 18 Pitt will face No. 20 SMU, with both teams confirming their starting quarterbacks are cleared to play. Pitt's Eli Holstein, a redshirt freshman, was previously uncertain due to an injury sustained in a recent game but has been confirmed fit by Coach Pat Narduzzi. Meanwhile, SMU's Kevin Jennings, who had a tough outing against Duke but managed to lead his team to a win, has also been medically cleared to start. Holstein has been a strong performer this season, throwing for 1,808 yards and 17 touchdowns, while Jennings has completed 64.2% of his passes for 1,594 yards and 10 touchdowns. The game's outcome may hinge on the performance of these quarterbacks against each other's defenses, with both teams boasting solid defensive records. This matchup marks a significant challenge for both teams as they aim to maintain their winning streaks.
