I talked a little bit about the Pitt-Penn State rivalry in the preview on Monday. Despite what some people may say, make no mistake, this is a rivalry game and one that fans on both sides care about.
Pitt head coach Pat Narduzzi talked a little about it during the weekly press conference and there’s no doubt that he feels the same way.
“It’s a big game because it is a rivalry game,” Narduzzi said flatly. “They get to come to Heinz Field. I think it’s going to be a lot of fun. I think our kids will be excited.
