The Pitt men’s basketball team took another shot at victory on Saturday. But after a somewhat close game, the result was the same as it has been each of the last four times out — another loss. The Panthers (9-9) fell to No. 16 Florida State (13-3) 79-72.
Pitt’s offensive performance wasn’t completely lacking. The Panthers did, after all, score 72 points. But how the Panthers got there was a problem. The team shot just over 38% for the game, including a dismal 4-17 performance from three-pint range. As it has been many other times this year, scoring efficiency was a problem.
