Ok, this article really fried me:
By Ron Cook / Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
"Syracuse is 18-0 and has been ranked No. 2 in America since Dec. 9, but it is not the favorite to win the ACC championship.
Pitt is.
I'm serious.
That is not a giddy overreaction to Pitt's ridiculously easy 76-43 win against Clemson Tuesday night at Petersen Events Center. It is merely a clear-thinking assessment of the way Pitt is playing, its 5-1 league record, the quality of the other ACC teams and the remaining schedule.
All signs point to Pitt.
It is much more fun to think about how Pitt can win the ACC in its first season in the conference. It's not a stretch to suggest it should be in first place now instead of Syracuse. It lost at Syracuse, 59-54, Saturday in a game that left the players and coaching staff angry because they felt they should have won."
Okay, it's one thing to believe that you are a quality ACC team. No one would argue with that in regards to Pitt. But because they "should have won," they feel they ARE the best??
