Pitt wins 31-17
We rush for about 250 yards, and Voytik has a decent-on-paper game passing (150 yards, >65%) as he's able to hook up with Boyd a handful of times. Our front seven's new stunts & blitz schemes continue to create a lot of pressure in the opponent's backfield, finally resulting in either a sack-fumble or a badly thrown interception.
It will be easier for Pitt's D to prevent big plays for 3 reasons: 1) it will be in the 60's, not 80's & 90's, so guys shouldn't be dead tired by the 4th, 2) Reggie Mitchell should play in the 2nd half, 3) soggy field .... and a possible/hopeful 4) more Bam. That being said, there will likely still be a huge broken TD by the Zips since our D is still learning.
