Number 16 Penn State moved to 2-and-0 with a 27-to-9 win over Temple at Lincoln Financial Field Saturday. Quarterback Rocco Becht threw two touchdowns to Ben Brahmer, and the Nittany Lions overcame a rough offensive start to score on five straight possessions in the second quarter. Penn State hosts Buffalo next Saturday.

Pitt also improved to 2-and-0, grinding out a 12-to-7 win over UCF in a rain-soaked, weather-delayed game at Acrisure Stadium. True freshman Damon Ferguson Junior scored the Panthers’ only touchdown, and the defense — highlighted by a Braylan Lovelace safety — held on despite getting outscored in the second half. Pitt opens ACC play Thursday, hosting Syracuse.
