Watch: Pitt using offensive linemen for screen plays again

Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY Sports

Pitt's Brian O'Neill became a national name last year thanks to the fact the offensive tackle scored two touchdowns on the season, an extremely rare feat for a player in his position.

Despite losing offensive coordinator Matt Canada to LSU in the offseason, O'Neill is still an important part of the Panthers' offense, and that was on display yet again versus NC State on Saturday.

With the ball on the 11-yard line, Pitt executed a perfect screen pass to O'Neill, who took it down to the half-yard line. The Panthers would punch it in one play later.
