PITTSBURGH — Former star Pitt quarterback Kenny Pickett and other Pitt football alumni unveiled the new 2021 ACC Championship banner at the southeast rotunda at Acrisure Stadium during the Backyard Brawl, Thursday night.
Joining Pickett included former Panthers alumni in linebackers John Petrishen and Chase Pine, wide receiver Tre Tipton, tight end Jake Zilinksas and punter Kirk Christodoulou.
All of these players were a part of the 2021 ACC Championship team last season, the first for the program since joining the conference in 2013.
Pickett led the Panthers to that ACC Championship and also the first 10-win regular season in 40 years. He finished with 4,319 passing yards and 42 passing touchdowns, finishing with a slew of accolades, which included becoming a Heisman finalist.
Is that a hoopie flipping off the banner I see?
