Pittsburgh 38, New Hampshire 16

PITTSBURGH

Tino Sunseri threw for two touchdowns in a span of 5 minutes and backup running back Ray Graham ran for 115 yards and two scores to help Pittsburgh pull away. Pitt (1-1) bounced back from an opening game overtime loss at No. 20 Utah and denied the Wildcats (1-1) — ranked No. 6 in the Football Championship Subdivision — their sixth consecutive victory over an FBS opponent. Sunseri, whose interception in overtime led to Pitt’s opening game loss, came back to throw a 2-yard scoring pass to Cam Saddler with 18 seconds left in the first half, making it 17-3. Sunseri followed that with a 56-yard TD pass to Jon Baldwin with 4:42 gone in the second half.

Cincinnati 40, Indiana St. 7

CINCINNATI

Zach Collaros threw for two touchdowns and ran for another, and Cincinnati’s wobbly offense finally found its legs in the second half. The Bearcats (1-1) heard boos at halftime after struggling to a 12-7 lead, their spread offense going nowhere for a second straight game. Collaros directed Cincinnati to touchdowns on all four of its drives in the third quarter.
