Pitt closed out its regular season on Saturday with a 77-62 loss to Clemson at Littlejohn Coliseum. The outcome was expected, as the Tigers were favored and the Panthers were light on depth, but what was unexpected was a postgame outburst from Pitt head coach Jeff Capel about bias in ACC officiating.
What set Capel off was the fact that Pitt star Justin Champagnie played through contact at the rim and did not draw a call in the game. It was the first time this season Champagnie did not get a call and the first time since Feb.
