Reader Lupper chimes in with a Fanpost on a website's 7-5 prediction for Pitt football
... that is if WhatIfSports.com is to be believed .. using their college football simulation engine, they've played out the season through thousands of simulations to preview the Big East .. based on the results, they've calculated both a percentage chance of winning and an average 'score' .. their preview has Louisville winning the BE with a 9-3 overall record and 5-3 conference record. Pitt is listed as finishing 7-5 overall and 4-3 in the conference; in a three-way tie for second with USF and Rutgers .. looks like Pitt loses the tie-breakers .. here are the particulars on how they believe the Panthers will fare:
