I can't think of a worse way for Pitt to have ended their season this year. They had a mediocre end of the regular season, causing us to feel like this team would probably win 1 game in the NCAA tournament. Then they tore through the Big East ...

The Pitt-Oral Roberts game was everything that a Pitt fan (and nothing that an Oral Roberts fan) could want. ORU was in the game for about 5 minutes. They were actually up 13-10. Then Pitt went on an 18-0 run and slammed the door on any idea ...
