Still Not In The Polls

Despite winning this weekend, Pitt made no movement in the polls this weekend.

The Panthers remained at 30th in the USA Today Poll and even fell a spot in the AP Coaches poll, being leapfrogged by idle 0-1 Oregon State.  Not sure I get that one.  I guess if voters were more impressed with Boise State, some may have taken that into account when considering Oregon State's loss to them. But meanwhile, Pitt's loss to Utah is looking less terrible as the Utes are now up to #14 in both polls.

ESPN.com's Brian Bennett found room for both Pitt and WVU in his poll.

It's hard to understand the logic of voters sometimes, but again, those are the perceptions of the Big East.  I wrote a brief post on this over at SB Nation Pittsburgh.

It will be interesting to see how the bye week treats Pitt in the rankings.
