The high-water mark for Pitt’s passing game was more than a month ago.
Facing Georgia Tech at home, Kenny Pickett completed 16-of-23 passes for 197 yards. Granted, he didn’t throw any touchdown passes and did have one interception, but that was his best completion percentage of the season against a Power Five opponent and the yardage total was Pickett’s most in 2018.
That’s a low bar to set - 101 FBS programs currently average more than 197 passing yards per game - but the trend is even more troubling, as Pitt’s passing yardage has only dropped since then.
