Let’s jump into the preview for Monday night’s game.

PITT’S OUTLOOK

The Panthers are looking to extend their winning streak to five to open the season, and they should get the job done against VMI in Monday night’s game.

Pitt’s guard trio of Jaland Lowe, Ishmael Leggett, and Damian Dunn has been spectacular to start the season, and the mix of Guillermo Diaz Graham and Cam Corhen inside has been an improvement from last year’s front court. Pitt will look to keep the hot streak going against likely the worst team that they will play against all season long,, VMI.

VMI (Southern Conference)

VMI finished last season 4-28 overall, finishing 1-17 in conference and 358th out of 362 D1 teams in the NCAA’s NET rankings.
