“The NLI is gone and the consensus is prospective student-athletes will sign financial aid agreements, scholarship agreements. This sets up better with the looming revenue-share, so there will be more of a contract with the players and schools.”

Alright everyone...back from the Off Week (I hate the term Bye Week for some reason haha). Pitt has a chance to start 5-0 for the first time since 1991....can they do it? If they win this not only do they start 5-0, but they will continue to get more national pub and may sneak into the the top 25. They haven't won in Chapel Hill...ever I believe (at least not since we joined the ACC).

So...I think Pitt FINALLY wins at UNC. Pitt's offense will be able to move the ball and score IMO. Eli will have another good game with over 300 yds (again) and 4 TDs. Reid has over 150 all purpose yds and a TD. I think Kenny Johnson and Mumfield each get over 100 yards (or close to it).

I do think UNC will be able to run the ball and run the ball well, but I think the Pitt defense will be able to get a couple more stops than UNC's D and i think they force two turnovers, which will be huge.

I say Pitt 41 UNC 30

What does everyone else think??

Pitt’s defense allowed just 17 points and stopped North Carolina’s offense on third down 10 out of 15 times in addition to stopping four fourth-down attempts on Saturday. Here are a few things that stood out from Saturday’s defensive performance.

Give the Head Coach some credit, which I know he has gotten since the season started but it really has gone in his favor soo far , not only this season but most since this NIL started. With the exception of last season , the portal has benefited Pitt .
Wonder why these kids don't just commit here in the first place ?
Looking forward to playing Cal. In season's past I think the pressure has gotten to Pitt and they cracked and would blow a game they should have won. Maybe with Holstein , he is too young to know what pressure is ???

Got a question about Pitt football, basketball, recruiting or anything else? Post it in this thread and we'll answer as many as we can in this week's Mailbag on Friday.

Thanks in advance for participating.

Pitt-Cal is two days away, so we're looking at the matchups on today's Morning Pitt. How do the Panthers stack up against the Bears? Let's look into it. Plus, we've got a breakdown of the notable games to watch this weekend.

Yeah…this ain’t good….areas Tampa and south could be wiped out, and the area between just north of ft myers and Tampa has largely avoided direct hits for decades.

Tampa, Bradenton, Sarasota, Venice, all in big trouble. I’ve been to Bradenton/sarasota/siesta key, and oof…the wrong landfall location and areas of those places are gone

May his team be so successful on Saturday that the Trojans run up the score and win by 50+ against...

You cannot possibly target a player's helmet any better than the Miami player did. If Miami were not in contention for a CFP bid, this 100% gets called targeting on replay. Absolutely no question about it.

Join Jim and me for this week's LIVE Panther-Lair Show, as we'll be breaking down Pitt's big ACC game against Cal, the coming start of the hoops season and a lot more. Tune in and join the conversation with your comments and questions.

Right now according to ESPN we have a 17% of making the playoff.

With the assumptions you win the rest of your other regular season games and no ACC championship bid, here are the scenarios against our 3 toughest opponents:

SMU, Clemson, and Louisville.

• 0% chance of making the playoff if we lose all three of these games.
• 56% chance— getting a 12 seed if we win only against Louisville and lose to SMU and Clemson.
• 58% chance—-getting a 10 seed if we win only against SMU and lose to Louisville and Clemson.
• 60% chance getting a 9 seed if we beat only Clemson and lose to both SMU and Louisville.

Again these are the numbers assuming we beat Cal, Cuse, Virginia, and BC.

Numbers also indicate we do not make the ACC championship.

Does anyone have information on when the B-Ball mini plans will go on sale?

Nice Win against No. 1/2 (Depending on Poll) Denver U. We should be clear cut No 1 now. Pitt controlled most of the game with possession and 2-0 score could have been higher.
