    Pittsburgh U vs Syracuse

    thoughts?

    leaning towards Pittsburgh U +1.5 they look like the better team of the two.

    The Orange get back all-conference left tackle Justin Pugh for the first time this season, and receiver Adrian Flemming returns as well for Friday night's game. Flemming emerged as a threat in camp before suffering a high ankle sprain that kept him out of the season's first month.

    The Panthers recovered from an 0-2 start to go on a historic two-game explosion in a pair of wins. Does Ray Graham who was second in the conference in rushing through four games despite being less than 100 percent take it to another level following a bye week to recover

    Both teams are coming off a bye and appear to be heading in different directions. The Panthers have won two straight; Syracuse looked terrible in a loss to Minnesota. Pitt has won seven straight in the series, but Syracuse has played well in national spotlight games and showed glimpses of greatness in the first two games against Northwestern and USC. Its last Big East victory came on a Friday night -- against West Virginia a season ago. I believe the Orange will cut down on their silly mistakes and benefit from having tackle Justin Pugh back in the lineup. I can see this one turning into a shootout

    I actually take back my Syracuse pick. The last time Pitt played at the Dome and these QB played each other Tony won the Qb battle by a large margin. http://espn.go.com/ncf/recap?gameId=302890183

    Graham was also apart of that beating. I may not make a play on this game at all. GL

    Syracuse has been extremely sloppy, they will clean that up a bit and win. Stop the run as best they can, Graham will get his but Tino will throw a couple INT's our way. The dome isn't going to be rockin by any means and we'll be lucky if we fill half the dome. Fan morale is down. I would rather take the over though, Pitt will run it down our throat and probably be successful though with Tino's picks we can get some good field position. We'll get it together on offense and put up points more like the Northwestern game and not like the Minnesota game. Screw the side, take the over is my advice actually.
