The Pitt football season is just around the corner. Recently, CBS Sports’ experts looked at the ACC and the Panthers.
Their staff broke down all sorts of things, including the conference’s more underrated and overrated teams. Ben Kercheval puts Pitt in the underrated camp:
Pittsburgh: The Panthers have been consistently OK under coach Pat Narduzzi. I don’t necessarily expect them to punch too far above their weight in 2020, but they are a catalyst team that could make life difficult for some of the ACC’s top teams. For one, Narduzzi finally has the type of defense on campus that he needs to keep this program competitive with the league’s top dogs.
