Tony Miliano kicked four field goals, including a 41-yarder in the fourth quarter that completed No. 22 Cincinnati's 26-23 comeback victory over host Pittsburgh on Saturday.

The Bearcats (7-1, 3-0 Big East) trailed 23-13 early in the third quarter before rallying with three consecutive scoring drives, pulling ahead by three on Miliano's kick with 14:49 remaining. The Panthers (4-5, 2-2) had a final opportunity to force overtime, but Kevin Harper narrowly missed a 50-yard field goal.

Pittsburgh had five chances to reclaim the upper hand in the fourth quarter but came up empty on all of them, including a drive that began in Cincinnati territory after K'Waun Williams' interception at the 4:44 mark. The Panthers passed on a long game-tying kick and Tino Sunseri's fourth-down pass was off target with 3:37 to go.

Harper kicked three first-half field goals for the Panthers, including a 52-yarder.

Isaiah Pead rushed for 118 yards on 22 yards to lead the Bearcats, while Devin Street paced Pittsburgh with eight catches for 118 yards.
