Quotes of Note:
Pitt never trailed over the final 11 minutes, though Seminoles coach Leonard Hamilton downplayed the idea his team was flat after the near-miss against the Blue Devils.
"You don't ever want to accept that," Hamilton said. "It was an emotional loss for us, but that's part of what you have to prepare for in the ACC. Pitt lost Saturday too. They bounced back and we didn't."
The Panthers gave away size at nearly every position. Yet rather than try to shoot over the Seminoles, Pitt decided to try and run through them.
The Panthers drove to the basket all night, particularly McGowens. He missed a breakaway dunk early on but tried to go right back to the rack by attempting to rise over 6-foot-10, 250-pound Mfiondu Kabengele. That dunk missed as well, but McGowens drew the foul and appeared to send a message that Pitt would not be intimidated.
"We feel like we are going to fight every time we play," Capel said. "If we fight and we play with some semblance of intelligence, we'll have a chance."
Capel recruited well and got some players. He also scheduled well and the home schedule shows many beatable teams which is what he wanted to do considering how they blew away last year. So they're a very competitive team and we have to stay the course we were on in Durham or this could be another home loss. It's easy to say but we can't let down. Shooting the way we did vs Dook and in general being aggressive is a must against them. They do not have a Williamson type player on their roster so Marek does not have to take a charge against someone like him. I wonder how MD is? Hope he's OK. GOSU
