It wasn't easy, but Pitt found yet another way to win a close game. This time, the Panthers eeked out a 23-20 road victory against Syracuse on Saturday.
At some point, the team has to be taken for real. It was hard to do that with modest wins against Youngstown State and Akron. It got a little easier with wins against Virginia Tech and Virginia. The nation took notice as the Panthers were ranked this week after a win at Georgia Tech. At 6-1 and with yet another road win, if you're not on board yet, you should be.
