DOMINATION IN THE TRENCHES:
Pitt racked up 341 yards rushing on 56 attempts and held a 35:29 to 24:31 edge in time of possession. James Conner, who wasn’t happy with his performance against Villanova, rushed for 117 yards (5.3 YPC) and a TD, and added 29 yards plus a TD through the air.
There has been very little coverage of Pitt-OK St. so far, which is understandable after the emotions of Pitt-Penn State week. Are the Panthers due for an emotional let down? Will OK St. roll over after a crushing loss. It’s an important game for both teams as they find themselves fighting to break into (Pitt) and back (OK St.) into the top 25.
