George Aston probable for Pitt against Georgia Tech

Pitt's running game could receive a big boost this weekend against Georgia Tech. Fullback George Aston, who has been MIA this season with an undisclosed injury, is listed as 'Probable' to return this week.

If Aston does make it back on the field, that should give the running game a big boost. He's not only a great blocker, but he was heavily involved as a back carrying the ball last season. Pitt had some red zone woes against Penn State a couple of weeks ago and Aston is great to have in that situation. Last year he had five rushing touchdowns.
