Last week, the Deacons had a chance to solidify their season. With a potential bowl appearance on the line, the team had a reasonable opportunity to pull off the upset against a quietly successful Pitt Panthers team. Unfortunately, that hype died down as soon as the second half approached. The Panthers came out of the gates on a roll and ended up winning this one 34-13.
In my previous piece, I told you to watch out for running back Darrin Hall and defensive back Dane Jackson.
Here’s how those two panned out.
Hall: 13 rush 44 yards 1td
Jackson: 3 tot, 1 tfl, 4 pd
The Panthers carried a more balanced rushing attack than normal in this one.
