If you’re Syracuse (1-1) and Pitt (2-0), you have to win your 50/50 games – the ones you’re supposed to have a good shot at taking down.
Syracuse already lost a tough one to Cal last week, Pitt has a slew of big ACC games down the road, and for both, this is a moment to show something better after rough offensive performances last week.
Syracuse vs Pitt: Quick Hits
- The Syracuse offense put up yards in the first two weeks, but three interceptions in the 21-18 loss to Cal were devastating. This is the start of a whopping three road games in a row and four in the next five.
- Pitt got by UCF 12-7, but the offense only managed 315 total yards. It’ll likely be 4-0 if it wins this – Bucknell is up next – and then it’s three ACC road games in four dates, including Miami and Virginia Tech.
- Pitt won this matchup 30-13 last year and seven of the last eight going back to 2017.
