With Pitt out of action this week, we're still being somewhat forced to look back at last weekend's game vs. the Hawkeyes. In a close loss to Iowa, Pitt head coach Pat Narduzzi made a controversial decision to punt in Iowa territory on 4th down with the team needing but a few short inches for a first down.
The Panthers punted the ball away and watched Iowa march down the field for a touchdown. Pitt did come back to tie the game momentarily, but eventually lost on a last-second 57-yard field goal.
Chris mentioned this in the Turning Point of the Week, and as most of you know, I was against the punt given all of the circumstances.
