ah, the granddaddy of 'em all... the BBVA Compass Bowl. the game we've all been waiting for. it's finally here.
pitt (+3) 2 units. c'mon, this line is crazy low, begging for ole miss money. don't give it to 'em. i think now that the panthers are one year older and one year wiser, they will not succumb to the temptations of downtown birmingham and they'll be focused on getting a compass bowl win. the only possible distraction... all the pitt players visiting their 3-month old babies that they made last year. it might be a little awkward, as i'm sure none of them expected to ever be in birmingham again.
ok, one moment of seriousness... i think the difference will be turnovers. pitt only turned the ball over 8 times all year, best in the country. somehow sunseri got a lot smarter with the ball, only throwing 2 INTs. wallace for ole miss is a turnover machine, throwing 15 INTs.
