Pitt Vs. Virginia Preview: Betting Info, Spread, Game Time, Channel

On Monday night at 7 p.m., Pitt will take on Virginia at Petersen Events Center, looking to improve to 6-5 in the ACC.
PITT’S OUTLOOK
Pitt sits at 14-7 overall and 5-5 in ACC play after falling to Wake Forest on the road over the weekend.
The Panthers have lost five of their last seven games dating back to the Jan. 7 game at Duke. Pitt is looking to snap the streak with a win over Virginia, who is not the same Virginia that we’re used to seeing come into Pittsburgh. After longtime head coach Tony Bennett retired just before the season, interim HC Ron Sanchez took over. The Cavaliers have struggled this year, and are currently 10-12 overall and 3-8 in ACC play.
