No. 6 Pittsburgh Panthers

Pittsburgh is 8-1 this season and showing that they are ready to make a run at an NCAA tournament bid.

It is a shame that they were not able to finish their contest against Gonzaga to open the season because they were actually in that game, however,  because of the conditions in Japan  such as the humidity being unsafe the officials did the right thing shutting that game down.

    • This is what we have found out about the Pitt Panthers since that contest, they can definitely score the basketball averaging 85.3 points per contest.

    Jamel Artis is very capable of filling it up averaging 15.1 points per game on 55.7% shooting from the floor.

    James Robinson has been steady as the floor leader dropping 10.1 points and 4.9 assists on the ledger.

    Last but not least, this team can go eight to ten players deep, which is a very important trait for a Jamie Dixon coached team.

    Pittsburgh is going to be a dangerous team going into the ACC season and they are just feeling themselves out right now in the non-conference schedule.

    We are just going to come out and say it right now, this team is an NCAA tournament bound squad, book it !
