Pitt entered its season opener with very little insightful tape available about UMass after the Minutemen only played four games last season and had a several transfer players across its depth chart.
That's not the case for Pitt's next opponent, Tennessee, who's coming off a 38-6 win over Bowling Green on Saturday. The Volunteers are coached by Josh Heupel, who faced off against Pat Narduzzi's Panthers twice over his three year head coaching stint with Central Florida (UCF), beating Pitt 45-14 in 2018 and watching Pitt return the favor at Heinz Field 35-34 in 2019.
