Jim made a number of good points yesterday in his post about the state of the team, but I realized during Sunday's game that he was only discussing the symptoms - not the disease. Pitt's mediocrity since it joined the ACC isn't a coincidence, nor is it Jamie's fault or anyone else at in the program. No - this is a conspiracy.
Theoretical Proof of Conspiracy
Home "Wins" in the ACC: Thus far, ACC teams have won a mere 63.5% of their home games against other ACC teams. Meanwhile, Pitt's win percentage at the Pete has historically been around 90%, meaning that a mere 10% of their wins come on the road (or about two per season, based on recent averages).
