I had made a point to say this week that Virginia was not as good as their record indicated. An ugly 41-10 loss last weekend against Boston College seemed to prove that but Pitt’s 31-14 win today over them was another indication that their 5-2 record was a little inflated.
The Panthers had a really solid effort today, I thought. They had some dumb penalties and made some mistakes out there, but overall, both sides played pretty well. I honestly think the score could have even been a little more lopsided.
This isn’t a knock of Virginia, of course.
