Pitt traveled to Syracuse on Saturday and failed to come away with a victory, losing 27-24. That drops the Panthers to 2-4 on the season while Syracuse moves to 3-3.
The biggest problem I had (as I expect most did) today was the inability to do much of anything on offense. Pitt wasn’t completely helpless in scoring 24 points but was definitely lacking. Some of that was on the players. Aaron Mathews and Jester Weah both had key drops which would have been long gains. Earlier in the game, Max Browne also missed on two long throws - one of which was going to Quadree Henderson, who was at least 15 yards open and underthrown by about that much for an incompletion.
