This is my annual plea. I simply don’t understand the malaise from this fan base when it comes to our series with Pitt(sburgh).

Pitt should be viewed with severe disdain or even hatred, for they are our longest, most proximate rival. Big East. Eastern Independents. And they’ve had their way with us for the last 20 years.

And it’s escalated. Narduzzi -- a lowly gym teacher right out of central casting -- showed up and thumbed his nose at SU. And to be blunt, he's beat us consistently.

This is our rival. It’s decidedly not Clemson (just stop, they're not!), like most will clamor for. Pitt is the team we should strive to topple, and it pains me to say this, but they've easily been the best of the northern ACC squads. Fran should start with that aspiration – to consistently beat and finish higher than BC and Pitt -- and then build from there.

Last year’s win was nice, but this year is when we begin to beat them both physically and aesthetically. The truth of the matter is we have not won consecutive games against the Panthers in 20+ years.
