Message: [QUOTE="PeteCalvin, post: 571453, member: 439"] Pitt beats us up. They typically use their brute strength to off set our athleticism and take us completely out of our game. In other words, they punk us. And we take it. It's time for us to dish a little back on them. The way to beat Pitt is to make our shots, limit their offensive rebounds, and keep a lead on them. Make them chase us on the scoreboard. It'll force them to play every possession and not play Dixon ball. Whenever they get a 6 point lead in the second half, Dixon pulls it out and sits on it. That's fine and dandy if we don't give them open threes at 2 seconds on the shot clock or let them draw a foul on us underneath, or give up an offensive rebound. Playing Pitt is like having root canal. [/QUOTE]
