Much like the football team, the 2019 Pitt men’s basketball team will be tested right off the bat as they open the season at home against Florida State on November 6th.
Last night, the Atlantic Coast Conference officially revealed the rest of the matchups as they released the entire slate of 2019-20 games for the conference during a special on the ACC Network.
In addition to Pitt’s ACC-opener, the team will also travel to Louisville on December 6th for a second early conference matchup. The full ACC part of the Panther’s schedule kicks off January 4th versus Wake Forest.
It had been previously announced that Pitt’s six repeat ACC opponents will be Florida State, Georgia Tech, Louisville, Miami, Syracuse and North Carolina.
