Head to Head
Teams Last 10
Pittsburgh Panthers
The Pittsburgh Panthers enter this game tied with Miami and Virginia for first place in the ACC standings at 14-5 in league play. They are 21-9 overall, and can lock up the top spot in the league with a win and a loss by Virginia. Of course, Pitt will regret losing in their last game to Notre Dame, in a game that would have put them a game up on the Cavaliers and Hurricanes had they won it.
Here, Pitt has to be better on the defensive end if they are going to keep themselves alive in the race for the ACC regular season crown. They have allowed 83.5 points per game in their last two road games against Notre Dame and Virginia Tech. Another poor defensive showing could cost them in a big way come conference tournament time.
Miami Hurricanes
Miami comes into the final day of the ACC regular season with the tiebreaker advantage over Virginia and Pitt at the top of the ACC. They have the same 14-5 conference record as those two teams, but their 23-6 overall record is superior to that of the other two teams. Here, the Hurricanes will aim to lock up the ACC regular season title and, more importantly, the top seed in the ACC Tournament.
For Miami, the key to this game is going to be rebounding the basketball. Pitt averages about 2.5 rebounds per game more than Miami this season. If the Canes cannot compete on the glass at a high level for 40 minutes, they could be in for a disappointing evening.
