Pitt faces Duke on Saturday and, as usual, the team will have at least a couple of key injuries to watch. Most specifically this week, defensive linemen Mark Scarpinato and Tyrique Jarrett are both listed as doubtful for the Panthers' game against the Blue Devils.
Those are pretty big (literally, and figuratively) losses if they are unable to go this weekend. In terms of the depth chart that Jim wrote about earlier this week, that would seemingly move Jeremiah Taleni into the backup role behind Darryl Render. It also could move KK Mosley Smith up to start.
