+6.5 Dome Dogs to Pitt.

I am afraid that Pitt is going to take us apart. Not because of history, but because they move the ball well, set good ball screens to get players open, and pass well.

They have a group of cohesive offensive players, who execute their foundational concept -- and those are the types of teams we struggle with, under this coaching staff. I'm surprised the line is that low. Sadly.

Maybe because Pitt hasn't been the most stellar road team so far this season.

I have watched them a few times and agree with all those things. Pitt's defense isn't as strong as it has been but they play hard and with some fire. I am hopeful we can match the intensity but unless we can stay disciplined on defense we will have a lot of trouble stopping them. That's the typical recipe for a 5-6 point game quickly becoming a 15-20 point game (we cant get any stops). Have to win the battle of the boards and keep the turnover margin close or another double digit pounding coming
 
sometimes it's hard for FORMER powers to accept the overwhelming UNDERDOG role. but we must learn to embrace it. Every great sports movie is about a group of rag-a-tag losers with no chance at all finally coming together and a last second win over the snobby elitist favorites . upsets. what dreams are made of.

You start by covering. Wins come shortly after that. Then the NIT, the bubble, and finally by 2031 the NCAA tournament.
So...you're saying that Red needs to get an 8th year, so he can FINALLY get his roster in place?
