That’s the theme facing Pitt on Homecoming weekend.
Utah has an exceptional attacking defense that will pressure Pitt’s offensive line, but the Utes have had quarterback issues and their offense is a work in progress.
Sound like a team Pitt knows?
It sounds a lot like Rutgers, which defeated the Panthers, 34-10, Saturday.
Let’s face it, for any opposing defense, Rutgers laid out the best approach to stopping Pitt. The O-line is shaky. So is the QB. Attacking makes the most sense. Coach Todd Graham acknowledged as much.
Todd Graham said Utah (2-3) doesn’t blitz nearly as much as Rutgers, but he expects the Utes will change their defensive strategy against the Panthers.
“I look for them to (blitz) early and often,” he said. “They are going to game-plan and I think that is what you’ll see.”
The O-line will see some changes as Mark Rotheram is going to see action over Juantez Hollins.
