We beat Pitt.
Pitt beating a better team looks better on our resume.
The more any team we beat moves up on the RPI or ranks then it helps us.
plus its UNC. GTHC 3/14/2014 3:35:38 PM |

Pitt is in. This game is pretty much negligble to us unless we somehow make it to the tournament finals...in that case...I don't really know who would be the easier opponent...maybe Pitt because they'd be just like us in that they would have played 4 games in 4 days.
Oh...and fuck UNC...so go Pitt. 3/14/2014 3:35:38 PM |

Pitt is one of our "quality" wins, so we need them to look as good as possible.

They wont.
Pitt is too good of a defensive and rebounding team.
UNC lives in transition and they cant get that much in this game.
Helps out that Paige, their only good shooter, is out for awhile. 3/14/2014 3:41:00 PM |

Pitt lives on points inside the arc
--
When UNC loses, their fans will be like "no big deal, we play for national titles, we're already in the tournament, we're just resting, blah blah"
Then when they get bounced from the NCAA tourney in the 2nd round, they'll be complaining about how they had the hardest bracket of any team in the country and they got screwed

We know where this is headed. Duke rolls to ACC win and plays four games in their home arenas.
Has Dixon ever won a tournament? I cant remember if it was him or Howland the one year they finally beat UConn?

This game has now gotten ridiculous. Refs have been crackheads with the whistle all game and now they're letting everything go.
lulz...Pitt has also traveled like 20 times in the past few minutes.
