This week, Pitt heads to Atlanta to open its ACC conference schedule against Georgia Tech. Georgia Tech had a big win last week against North Carolina, dropped 45 points on the Tar Heels.
While I think everyone feels a little better about Pitt after they dropped 77 points last week, it did come against an FCS foe, and Pitt’s schedule starts in earnest now. Pitt has yet to play a single ACC game yet and is favored by some metrics to win the Coastal, which is frankly amazing and a statement on the state of the conference. Pitt controls its own destiny entirely.
