Pitt would have been expected to win this week’s game against Delaware regardless of what happened last weekend. But after the Panthers pulled off the upset against UCF, they likely became even bigger favorites against the Blue Hens.
Currently, Pitt is a 28-point favorite over Delaware. That’s a lot of points to cover, obviously, but the Panthers’ offensive output last weekend against UCF probably helped push that number up. Before then, Pitt was having a heck of a time getting on the scoreboard.
I’m not a betting man but I am still a bit surprised at that number.
