The woes for the Pitt basketball team continued on Saturday with another ugly loss. This one came at the hands of Georgia Tech as the Panthers were defeated, 69-54 at home.
Pitt has gotten off to some slow starts this year, but today’s took the cake. The Panthers started the game off ice cold and quickly found themselves trailing, 21-1. That’s not a typo.
To their credit, Pitt did fight back. The Panthers went on a run of their own and several times, cut it to single digits. But as you often see with teams forced to make big comebacks, it took so much work to get back in the game that Pitt simply couldn’t get ahead and ran out of gas.
