Pitt faces first power conference foe in Penn State

This season will mark numerous milestones for the Pitt basketball team. Most of the team participated in their first D-I games in the season opener against Navy. The team has already played its first road game and, on Wednesday, picked up its first win.

On Monday, most guys will be facing their first ever opponent from a power conference in Penn State.

The Nittany Lions have typically been an easy opponent. Pitt hasn’t lost to Penn State since 2000 and has won the last seven. Even when the Panthers haven’t been very good (like last year), they’ve come away with wins over generally weak Nittany Lions teams.
