You have a good point, without the students makes it "easier" but still a tough place to play. In all, still one of the hardest 1st games I can remember.Pitt students are on break.
Good stuff, thanks.We opened with Pitt at home in 06/07. They were a 3 seed that year.
Toughest road game to start conf play was all the way back to 03/04 @ND
Maybe not having JB will throw Dixon off. SU is the one team Dixon seems to own.Has SU ever had a harder game for the opening of conference play? Away at Pittsburgh. Then add not having the head coach available.
Pitt students are on break.
We're probably going to win.
The first 2 games are going to be brutal. Both teams are going to have good seasons. I would love a split but...
I would sign in blood for a split, I am fearing an 0-2 start.
rule #1 on this board.
Things are never as good as the board makes it and never as bad as the board makes it.
We arent a top 10 team. But we arent going to be a bottom feeder. Don't be shocked to go 2-0.
Michael Young scares me in this one - as does their interior (zone-carving) passingTough place to play with or without students. I've been to SU games twice at PEC. Great atmosphere. They'll likely use the offensive glass as their best weapon. Maybe Chinonso can be serviceable in this one.

It will be interesting to see if the new rules regarding moving screens will be lightened once January. Pitt were the worst abusers of the moving screen in the past.

Yup. They always pass well on the interior.
