Last year, Pitt's football team produced some great moments. From an individual standpoint, it was great to even see James Conner back on the field. But in terms of team wins, there were two big ones in Penn State and Clemson.
The Penn State win came early in the year when not much was expected of the Nittany Lions. They, of course, went on to finish with 11 wins and narrowly missed getting in the Playoff. The other big Pitt victory came against an unbeaten Clemson team that would go on to win the national championship. The lone blemish on the record was the loss against the Panthers.
