Versus sports TV channel will send a camera crew to the game-watch party that will take place on the Petersen Events Center lawn, according to an e-mail from the athletic department. A 25-by-14-foot video wall will be erected so that students can watch the game occuring 1,800 miles away, in Salt Lake City, Utah. The event starts at 8 p.m., and there will be free food and a DJ. A valid student ID is required.

The camera crew will film students’ reactions to the game, and it might air live after a Pitt touchdown. Versus did this during Penguins’ playoff games when large crowds gathered outside of the Igloo to watch.
