Hope anyone who laid money on the game took the points instead of the Panthers. Otherwise, in the final 2 minutes you were screaming bloody murder at the TV/radio/computer as Bowman and Small got scrub time. Sure enough, Pitt gave up 5 points in the final 25 seconds to win by only 11, 71-60. The spread was somewhere around 14. Ouch.

Pitt had something of a letdown in this game, and Duquesne was running after the ball. Too many turnovers and just some sloppiness at times.

Gray had another double-double, but had a down game at the FT line. He is an unknown at the line from game to game. Krauser had a very, very good game 23 points, 4 rebounds, 8 assists and only 3 turnovers. Once again, 10 Pitt players played double digit minutes.

A question for those either at the game or who were able to see it on TV. How was the officiating? Listening to Hillgrove and Groat, it seemed like Pitt was not getting a lot of calls. Hometeam playcalling or fairly accurate?
