We host Horizon Tournament Champ Cleveland State and then go to #16 Akron Sunday. #1 seed Kentucky awaits.
So Pitt, in essence, got the 17 seed which you cant really argue with. I was at Pitt/Akron earlier and the 2 teams were very evenly matched. Probably have to go with Akron at home though in what should be a raucous environment.
If Pitt were to get past Akron, you cant ask for a more beatable #1 seed to play than Kentucky. That may sound strange since they actually haven't been beaten. But they play in the quasi-mid-major Sun Belt and had a pretty weak schedule. I am definitely picking the Pitt/Akron winner to beat Kentucky.
