The Panthers overcame a 31-point halftime deficit, dominating the second half to secure a historic 72-59 victory in regulation.

Pittsburgh's 32-point comeback ties the largest in NCAA Division I women's basketball history, matching Texas State's 2006 overtime win against UTSA.
The Panthers outscored SMU 54-10 in the second half, including a 28-0 third quarter where SMU failed to score a single point.
Mikayla Johnson and Khadija Faye led Pitt with 22 and 21 points, respectively, with Faye also recording a double-double and six blocks.
SMU's offense collapsed in the second half, shooting just 7% from the field and missing all two-point attempts in the final three quarters.
The victory, achieved without overtime, marks the largest regulation comeback in NCAA women's basketball history.
