Over at SB Nation Pittsburgh, we've got a Pitt-Maine game preview.
Here's a portion of it:
After defeating the Buffalo Bulls last week, Pitt will look to tighten things up a bit this weekend in a contest against the Maine Black Bears.
As an FCS team playing on the road, Maine will have their work cut out for them, but that doesn't mean Pitt can afford to come out with a lackluster effort. After struggling for the first half of last week's game, the Panthers need to make some adjustments to get ready for the meat of their schedule.
Kicker Kevin Harper will simply need to get better, as he missed two field goals against Buffalo. His strong leg could be a real asset in Big East games this season, but any advantage gained by hitting a few long-range field goals will be nullified if he continues to miss shorter kicks.
