Associated Press
It looked as if Pittsburgh was going to help sort out the national championship race, until Notre Dame made a huge comeback.
The fourth-ranked Fighting Irish rallied from a two-touchdown deficit on the fourth quarter, and beat Pitt 29-26 in three overtimes Saturday.
Everett Golson scored on a quarterback sneak in the third overtime to end it.
Notre Dame (9-0) is off to its best start since 1993. Pitt (4-5) missed a potential game-winning field goal in overtime.
The Fighting Irish were among four unbeaten teams atop the BCS standings coming into the weekend. Notre Dame was supposed to have the easiest game of the three.
No. 2 Oregon stayed undefeated with a wild 62-51 victory at No. 18 Southern California.
No. 1 Alabama came from behind with a late touchdown to beat No. 5 LSU 21-17 in Death Valley, and No. 3 Kansas State beat Oklahoma State 44-30.
