Dutelle’s Take

It doesn’t matter that this game is on the road, nor does it really mean anything that Pitt… It doesn’t matter that this game is on the road, nor does it really mean anything that Pitt is coming off two very sloppy games. The Panthers have to win this game convincingly.

Cincinnati is, for the lack of unnecessary analysis, not a good team.

The Bearcats are small and don’t shoot well, as seen by blowout losses to every quality team they have played.

Playing at home ought to give them some sort of lift, but winning this game by fewer than 12 should be considered a disappointing performance for a Pitt team that is still the favorite in the Big East.

Look for the guards to squeeze the ball and cut down on the turnovers.

Pitt simply isn’t the same team when the ball is finding its way to the floor every other possession.

The assists will get back up into the 20s and the Panthers will look like the team that played so well against Georgetown.

Pitt 76, Cincinnati 62
