Virginia’s four-game winning streak ended last Saturday in a somewhat disastrous manner as Boston College rudely came into Scott Stadium and punched the Hoos in the mouth. We knew the winning wouldn’t continue forever, but it did seem like BC was beatable. The Hoos just came out flat and never stood a chance against a hot BC team.
The Panthers are coming off a win over Duke, but that is less impressive than it was a few weeks ago when Duke was 4-1. On the season, Pittsburgh is 3-5 with wins over Duke, Rice and Youngstown State.
The Cavaliers have lost the past two games to Pitt, and are 3-6 overall in the series.
