Pitt at UNC

[Dointhatrag]

This will be my third game of 2025 that I’ll be attending (Louisville and at Wake). Not sure why I’m deciding to continue to torture myself, probably more to see a game at unc as I work my way through the league arenas and stadiums.

Any chance we right the ship or is this season going to go down in flames similar to Pitt football and the Steelers?

I don’t want to sound pessimistic but this unit doesn’t feel like a bunch of close teammates that can come together. I’m tired of seeing Dunn or ish or Lowe trying to go one on one and make a low percentage shot. It feels closer to the days of Xavier, mcgowens and Toney than the last few years.

The lack of any inside rebounding presence and second chance opportunities is infuriating.

I thought it was interesting how the announcers on Monday could tell during practice which team was and wasn’t going to play well. That’s on capel.


This is going to be a really tough game after unc got blown out last weekend and has had the whole week off the stew on the loss to Duke and practice. We got lucky at home last week to come back and beat them. This will be a tall order.

Ok. Enough negativity. I’m headed to the game. Hopefully to see a win and our panthers hustle a little more and shoot a little better. Keys to the game in my book are rebounding, better shooting and passing on offense and don’t get blown out in the first five minutes. Be prepared at the start. Go panthers!

I'd like to tell you we will win, but, I can't see it. We don't defend well enough to win on the road. The offense is dead right now, but, UNC is not a good defensive team, so we might have a shot. However, given our disability when it comes to defending the 3, I will say RJ Davis finds his shot and drops 30+ on us.

I suspect you'll know the outcome in the first 5-10 minutes. If Pitt hangs around, then you'll probably get to see a good game (not necessarily a win). I just don't think Capel has any fighters in this group. At least not fighters that see any playing time... Lowe was benched during the Virginia game, and when he was put back in it was the same old crap.

Hey Pitt has a very decent shot at beating UNC again. After all, that's one of the very few teams on the schedule that Pitt has a coaching advantage over.

I think we can beat them but we just aren't a very good team right now. We have gotten worse as the season has gone on. UNC should be a good matchup because they don't shoot the 3 well and don't rebound well but they ran layup drills vs us in the 1st Half last time and were shooting 70% for a good portion of it. Couldn't keep our guy in front of us. Tightened up the D in the 2nd.

I think we lose the next 2.
