Pitt rebounded from a pretty sluggish first half against Wake Forest today to dominate the second half for a 34-13 win. The victory, of course, gives the Panthers their first ACC Coastal Division title, sending them to the conference championship game against Clemson.
If you watched the first half, it looked like the Panthers might need to defeat Miami next week to claim the Division title. Pitt could not run the ball and didn’t generate much offense. A blocked extra point contributed to the woes and the Panthers simply could not get much going. That all changed in the second half, though.
