One final tune up on the way before conference play and Holder looks to have saved the best for last with an ACC Coastal division challenger, the 2-0 Pittsburgh Panthers. After a monster win over their in-state rival Penn State, the Panthers look to keep a good thing going this week.
The Panthers bring a different style of play into Stillwater this weekend, and Coach Gundy said it best in his weekly press conference with how “they want to run the ball and on the flip side, they won’t let you run.” A ground and pound attack with big, physical linemen in the trenches, Gundy mentioned they are 117th nationally in plays per game, a poster child for the ball control method of shortening the game by holding onto it as long as they can.
