Dabo Swinney’s football team is hungry. Yes, Thanksgiving is Thursday and everyone will hopefully have a good meal to eat. But Swinney’s group is hungry to play football.
Swinney met with the media following Wednesday’s practice and said his team is itching to play Saturday.
“This team is ready to play. Hungry to play,” Swinney said. "They fought for their season and the opportunity to play, and hopefully they get that opportunity Saturday.”
Pitt (5-4, 4-4 ACC) takes on Clemson (7-1, 6-1 ACC) at 3:30 pm Saturday in Death Valley on ESPN. The Panthers started out 3-0, endured a four-game losing streak, and now has won two in a row after last Saturday’s domination of Virginia Tech on Senior Day.
