Pitt faces Syracuse for the second time this season on Saturday. The Panthers are looking to end a slide which has seen them lose their past four games.
Last time against Syracuse, Pitt hung with the Orange until the second half when they began to pull away.
I feel slightly more optimistic about Pitt here. I don’t know that they’ll have enough to win but the team has been much better at home this season. Aside from the drubbings they suffered at the hands of North Carolina and Duke, they’ve been good there in conference, defeating both Florida State and Louisville, two teams that are both currently ranked.
