Point-counterpoint: Who would win Pitt vs. Penn State?
Jeff Capel, Micah Shrewsberry.It possibly could happen in about a week, a matchup between Pitt and Penn State in an NCAA Tournament play-in game at Dayton.
Both the Panthers and Nittany Lions are on the bubble, and depending on how things go, one or both could wind up playing in a Dayton in a First Four game.
Even better, they could end up playing each other, which would be very interesting for our DKPS readers.
As of Monday night, both Pitt and Penn State were among the last four byes in Joe Lunardi's latest bracketology for ESPN. More precisely, Penn State is listed as the last bye, while Pitt is the next-to-last bye. If that holds, then obviously they wouldn't meet in the First Four.
