I think Pitt knocks off UF today.

[OrlandoCuse]

Pitt is surging and UF has looked shakey 0f late. I think Lamar Patterson goes crazy on offense and leads Pitt to the win.

I actually think UF might be a better matchup for us if we get to the Elite 8 but I wouldn't mind seeing them upset.

 

[JarHeadJim]

I totally agree!

Assuming Pitt plays well like it has of late, It will come down to Floridas 3pt shooting. They shoot a lot of 3s and in a tight game, if you hit one extra 3 or miss a few more than you planned and your percentage dips, it can cost you in the tournament.

I'm not sure which would be better for us, because beating a team thrice in the same season is very hard, especially a Pitt team that is certain it can beat us. But at that point, it would be an elite 8 game after beating Kansas (likely them anyways), you gotta like your chances in that matchup no matter what.

Here's to playing more awesome defense against Dayton today, so we have a shot a KU

This one is going to be a dandy. Pitt matches up well against florida

 

[SU2NASA]

Are all of you forgetting that this is Pitt and it's March and not the CBI?

 

[CorduroyG]

This will be a 1 possession game with 5 minutes left.

Florida will win though, they make the elite 8 every freakin year.

I was thinking pretty much the same thing.
Could come down to free throws...Pitt shoots better from the line.

I have complete confidence that Pitt will lose to UCLA in the Sweet 16. That round is their Achilles heel.

With the way Pitt is playing, I think I'd rather see Florida. Zanna is on another planet right now; I could see Rak getting 2 quick fouls in that game.

I think people underrated Pitt all year with the "they didn't play anyone" thing; they're good and beating them 3 times in 1 year would be tough.

Jamie Dixon wins his first game as a lower seed and now people want to think he can upset Florida? Pitt will play respectable then blow it. Pitt is allergic to big wins in the NCAA tournament. I give them credit for beating an undermanned Colorado team but Florida is a complete team and I doubt they will flameout this round.

Pitt is going to come out and punch Florida in a mouth; which is something Florida hasn't played against all year. We may dog Pitt, but they are as physical of a team as any in the country; Florida isn't really built like that. I could see the Gators getting really frustrated.

I totally agree!

I would like to see Pitt win and I think they have a chance....

Until I saw Jarhead predicted the win...

If you take it back, Pitt will have a chance again...

Joking, Jim!! It is kind of strange that we might be pulling for Pitt to win a game...

 

[HtownOrange]

I'm a Panthers fan today. Rarely in any sport am I a Gators fan. Go PITT!

Pitt matches up well and Dixon will eventually break through and make noise in a tourney. This is the perfect storm for Dixon, nothing to lose, playing the overall #1 seed, nobody respects them, how can Pitt lose?

 

[jvbj01]

If it is close and Florida presses, it is over. That display against North Carolina was a disaster.

 

[longislandcuse]

The media has dubbed this the upset special.

The media has dubbed this the upset special.

Therefore, Florida wins by 10.

Pitt will probably keep it close for a half.

 

[BludOrange]

As much as I dislike Pitt and would like to see them get stomped, I have to root for them as it could make an easier path for our Cuse.

Florida 1
Pitt 0

Honetly would rather have Florida than Pitt. Hard to beat a team 3 times in one season unless their 2012.

 

[Ghost]

Boooooom - banked three and a free throw.

Florida may be in trouble...bank'd threes are never a good sign!

I just want to handle our business and then the rest can be chaos.

 

[Ghost]

Did that dude just take 18 steps on that drive???

 

[longislandcuse]

Pitt is missing a lot of easy shots right now.

 

[longislandcuse]

Pitts offense is disgustingly bad right now. I know UF has a good defense but Pitt is lucky if they could convert a lay up at this point.

 

[samspann1]

Tomlin looks like he put on a few pounds since the season ended.

Isn't Belichick's son a Rutgers grad? Either way, Belicheat is a POS.
