Pitt has opened as a 7-point favorite for the Saturday’s road game against Georgia Tech, according to odds released on Sunday by BetOnline.ag.
The 4-4 Panthers are coming off a 41-17 win over Florida State that snapped a four-game losing streak. Pitt had started the season 3-0.
The Panthers are 1-5 against the spread this season, finally covering a line last weekend at Florida State, when they won by 14 as 1.5-point favorites. Pitt couldn’t cover as underdogs against Notre Dame and Miami, lost outright as favorites against Boston College & Miami, didn’t cover as a favorite against Syracuse, pushed against Louisville and had the opener against Austin Peay taken off the board.
The Yellow Jackets are 3-4 against the spread, covering as underdogs in all three instances, including hitting a 20.5 line in a 31-13 loss to Notre Dame on Oct. 31. Georgia Tech was off last weekend.
Saturday’s game will kick off under the lights at Bobby Dodd Stadium in Atlanta at 7 p.m., with 11,o00 fans expected to be in attendance.
Pitt and Georgia Tech have met 14 times overall, with the Panthers holding a 9-5 all-time advantage. Since the teams became conference foes in 2013, Pitt is 4-3 against the Yellow Jackets and has won four the last five games.
I saw Pitt finally play as a team Sat. The receivers caught the ball, defense was helping out in coverage, and the LB were effective blitzing in holes, and not jamming the line. Pickett was amazing (like I’ve said for 2 years) but needs his receivers to continue to catch the ball like they did Sat. Still need the OL (running game) to continue to develop and less stupid penalties on big plays.
Pitt still needs a new OC who creates mismatches in open space for our fastest players.
We will see which Pitt team shows up Sat.
H2P!!!
