SEATTLE - Pittsburgh is still undefeated - barely.

Justin Dentmon's runner in the lane as the buzzer sounded was disallowed after a lengthy review, and the 12th-ranked Panthers held off Washington 75-74 on Saturday.

Dentmon took an inbound pass the length of the court and scored as time expired. Initially, it appeared Dentmon's basket came after the sound of the horn. Officials reviewed video for nearly five minutes, with the Washington student section shouting in their ears, but agreed the shot came late.
Levance Fields led the Panthers (9-0) with 20 points, but missed the front end of a 1-and-1 with 5 seconds left, setting up the frantic final moments. DeJuan Blair of the Panthers grabbed the rebound, but was tied up by Washington's Jon Brockman and the Huskies got the ball on the alternating possession.
