An ACC showdown is set for Saturday afternoon when the Duke Blue Devils (7-3, 4-2 in ACC) visit the Pitt Panthers (6-4, 3-3). Duke is having a surprisingly great season and the program seems to be heading in the right direction. Pitt had high preseason expectations but have struggled a big throughout. Below is my college football pick for Duke vs Pitt.
