Some other info bits that may be useful. Pitt’s website is running, and they finally got the press release and game notes (PDF) for tomorrow’s game.

Orangenation didn’t seem to bother with a game preview this time. It’s a shame because they do great work on looking at the match-ups and breaking the game down. A couple good articles on their site worth noting, though. This is a Big East update from last Friday.

Pittsburgh (23-2, 9-2): The Pittsburgh Panthers have turned into the team that nobody wants to play this year. After losing senior catalyst Brandin Knight and center Ontario Lett, it looked like it would be a mediocre season. Don’t look now, but Pitt is ranked fourth in the nation and holds the nation’s longest home winning streak, dating back to the 2001-2002 season. This past week was a mixture of success, however. Earlier they lost a tight battle, taking Seton Hall down to the final seconds before Andre Barrett sealed the game with a couple of free throws. Just six days later, Connecticut came knocking, and the Panthers slammed the door in their face, 75-68. Pittsburgh’s last test of the season will come March 2nd when they visit the hot Providence Friars.

Notice they didn’t say it would be the Syracuse game tomorrow. That makes tomorrow’s game essential for Pitt, to avoid taking a bad loss. Nevermind losing at home.

The other article is a report card on Syracuse. Brutally honest in its evaluations, it provides a lot of things to watch for in the game.

The game is on CBS, but they don’t let you know where the coverage is for this or Kentucky/LSU. I have no clue which Cleveland is going to get.
