Pitt vs. Youngstown State: Open Gamethread

So with finals, Pitt's basketball team has been on a bit of a hiatus. This is the first game in a week for the Panthers and Pitt will look to stay undefeated on the year against Youngstown State.

This isn't a game that should be all that difficult for Pitt, but I will be pretty interested to see how the team comes out after having their biggest break of the year. Not to say Pitt will come out slow in this one, but there's a chance of that with so much time off.

Thing is, though, that this team has played so motivated this season. I can honestly see them taking it as a challenge to not come out flat and be ready to play from the opening tip. One can hope, right?
