Streak: The Golden Tornado are attempting to get off to a 3-0 start for the first time since 1997.

Statistic: Nick Monteleone has passed for 241 yards and Bobby Alexander has rushed for 202 yards through two games.

Strategy: Butler must avoid penalties and turnovers against the opportunistic Panthers.

Speaking: "We're trying to build a program here so we can reload every year, replace one senior class of starters with another group that's ready to play. …..That's what Upper St. Clair, Penn Hills and other consistently strong programs do." - Butler coach Garry Cathell
