2* - Pittsburgh (-10.5)
As much as I hate to do this, I find that I have no choice but to back the Panthers here. Pitt QB Tyler Palko has been deadly accurate as a passer this season and appears to be getting better each week. He is currently the highest rated passer in the NCAA and tonight will be facing the 113th ranked passing defense in the country and the offense looks to be nicely balanced with the play of RB Stephens-Howling who ticked off 221 yards on the ground last week against the Cuse. The Panthers have 21 players on their roster from Florida as Wannstedt had developed some strong relationships there during his time in Miami and he and his players would probably enjoy showing off a little. If Pitt gets out to a nice lead, look for Wanny to open the floodgates.
