Derek Carr is a decent, established NFL starting quarterback and Kenny Pickett outplayed and beat him in terrible conditions. Why is he already expected to be prime Ben in his 10th game? He’s doing alright.

Pitt, the 5th place team from the ACC, knocks off Iowa State. The Cyclones join West Virginia*as Big 12 teams that lost in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

Terrible loss, terrible season. Did not capitalize on any momentum from last year. Any unkind words you want to say about this team/season/coaching staff is warranted. They talked a big game in the offseason, and they had reason to, but did not deliver.

Kenny ain’t working out, not many quarterbacks would work in this system either. Feels like we’re at an impasse with the whole thing though.

Pitt ‘out-toughed’ the best team in the ACC and the preseason No. 1 team in the country. Pitt moves to 3-0 in ACC play for the first time since 2015-16. That was the last year this program made the NCAA Tournament. Something brewing in Oakland…

Joe Lunardi really taking this one to the grave, and I commend him for it.
He’s staying loyal to his shtick. He doesn’t watch basketball, he looks at numbers.
This game is a good example that you should watch basketball to dictate who should be in a basketball tournament.
It’s generally unfair to judge the Committee or a team on a single game after the fact, but UVa was a poor choice then and now. I would have taken Indiana State or one of the Big East bubble teams. Right or wrong, Pitt never had a shot with that schedule.

Pitt is now 12-3 since January 20th. That run includes road wins AT Duke, Virginia, NC State, which are all Quad 1 wins.
It also includes a pair of wins over fellow bubble team Wake Forest wins, including today’s 12-point win on a neutral court where they never trailed.

Brad Brownell isn’t wrong.
When Pitt beat Iowa State by 18 (Eighteen!!) in the tournament last year, at no point did it look like a true 6/11 upset.
Pitt had a better record and a better team, but Iowa State went 9-9 in the Big 12 and got a high seed.
Brad Brownell called out Big 12 teams for manipulating the NET:
"Their nonconference scheduling, they’re playing 300 level teams and winning by 40-50 points to increase their efficiency numbers. ... Our league is actually 9-3 against the Big 12."
