Pitt -5

Good game to get pumped up for, undeafted Pitt coming in almost in the top 25, Cats losing the last two. Game set for national tv time Jimmy V Classic


CATS-70

PITT-68

Ryan Fletcher throws a 70 foot bomb to Kenyon who makes a nice judgement call to give it to a streaking Melvin Levitt Cats win on last second dunk....man i still love dreaming about that.
 
In the Mick era he's always seemed to be able to get his teams to do just enough to keep the mob quieted down. Hopefully we see some changes to the rotations and schemes, if we do I think the Cats win.

UC - 62
Pitt - 57
 
Unless something changes we'll get killed on the boards. lack of aggressiveness on offense won't play well agains a tough Pitt team. Bearcats lose their third straight...68-54 Pitt.
 
Its been a very long time since I have been so down on a bearcat team.

UC simply cant afford to lose this game... although I believe they will.
 
I can't believe anyone is predicting Cincinnati.

We scored 54 and 47 against New Mexico and Xavier. A couple of lesser teams have been able to score near 70 against Pitt, but I'm sure those teams run some semblance of an offense.

Pitt 71, Cincinnati 60
 
Not much to be confident about right now. Hope to see everyone being aggressive and show some fight. Heart says cats by 5. Head says Pitt-63 UC-50
 
I haven't seen Pitt at all this year...just know their record.

Anyone want to clue me in on their strengths?
Their offense is 6th nationally in efficiency @ 1.24/possesion, got 2 leading scorers hitting 50%+, decent defense, 4 guys averaging 10 or more, decent PF from Nigeria (Zanna)

Also add they (Pitt) are rebounding machines. That does not bode well for us considering we lack toughness and the ability to get the loose ball.
