The Pitt Panthers will have another opportunity this weekend to showcase their program in front of a national audience.
It was announced late Saturday night that the Panthers game this Saturday against Clemson will be televised on ESPN. Kickoff from Heinz Field will take place at 3:30 PM.
Pitt will enter the game with an overall record of 5-1 and 2-0 in the ACC Coastal Division, while Clemson sits with a 4-2 record and 3-1 in the ACC Atlantic Division. Clemson currently trails both Wake Forest (4-0) and NC State (2-0).
Clemson is coming off a 17-14 win over Syracuse and is being led by their fast, talented defense. Offensively, they are struggling as they’ve only scored 20+ points twice this season (South Carolina State and NC State).
