live RPI has the Dukes sitting at 91 and a projected RPI of 101. There's a solid chance the Dukes end up in the RPI top 100. That's a nice boost to Pitt. A neutral site (I know it was at the Consol) top 100 win helps on selection Sunday.

Pitt actually has a pretty nice road / neutral resume. The wins at top 40 RPI ND and top 50 (trending toward top 40) RPI FSU are very good wins. If we get to bubble talk- wins at to 40RPI / NCAA bid teams are really nice to have.
 
While Pitt doesn't have any big scalps, we've done very well vs those decent teams outside of the top 25. Pitt has 7 wins against teams ranked from 26-100, and no losses outside the top 100, as long as NC St. doesn't slip.
