Pitt Faces QB Questions Entering Bowl Game

The Pitt Panthers started their season with seven straight wins, but ended their regular season with five straight losses. Now, they come into bowl season looking to end their season with a victory at Ford Field in Detroit. The college football odds have Pitt as favorites in this game, but there are questions about the health of their starting quarterback.

Eli Holstein has thrown 17 touchdown passes to just seven interceptions this year for the Panthers, but he missed the end of the regular season due to injury. While head coach Pat Narduzzi has said that Holstein has a good shot to play in this game, nothing is set in stone just yet. If Holstein can’t play, Pitt could be in a bad spot at the most important position on the field as they look to halt their long losing streak.

Can Toledo Upset ACC Opponent?

The Toledo Rockets also went 7-5 this season, going 4-4 in the MAC in the 2024 season. The Rockets won their lone matchup with a power conference opponent this season, beating up on a Mississippi State team that was one of the worst Power 4 teams in college football this year. Here, they look for another win against a power conference foe as they take on a struggling Pittsburgh squad.

If Toledo is going to get a win in this matchup, they are going to need their offense to wake up. The Rockets scored just 21 total points over their last two games in the regular season against MAC competition. If the Rockets can’t find a way to put more points on the board in this game, they could find themselves on a three-game losing streak to end their season.

Pitt vs Toledo Prediction

We are going to lay the points with Pitt in this Pitt vs Toledo matchup in the GameAbove Sports Bowl from Detroit. Holstein is expected to play in this game, which should provide a massive boost for the Pitt offense. And with Toledo struggling to put points on the board lately, we expect the Panthers to end their losing streak and finish their season on a high note.
