CHARLOTTE, NC – The Pitt Panthers are overwhelming underdogs heading into Saturday’s ACC Championship, facing what Pitt head coach Pat Narduzzi calls the benchmark program in the Atlantic Coast Conference.
A win on Saturday would give Clemson its fourth consecutive ACC title and make the Tigers the first team in the conference’s 66-season history to win four consecutive outright titles. Bobby Bowden’s Florida State squads earned at least a share of the ACC title in nine straight seasons across the 1992-2000 campaigns but never earned four outright titles in a row.
Narduzzi says there is a gap between Clemson and the rest of the conference.
