In the context of Pitt’s regular-season success and postseason hopes, Tuesday night’s home game against Syracuse was about as important as it gets.
The Orange came into the game only one win better than the Panthers and with plenty of shortcomings that made the night seem like an opportunity for the home team to point itself in the right direction.
Instead, Pitt came out of its off week and fell right into the same habits that have plagued the team throughout the conference schedule, and the result was all too familiar:
Poor shooting, bad offense, low production.
And a loss, as the Panthers fell to the Orange 69-58.
