Cardiac Hill Poll of the Week: Pitt's fate over next two games

It's widely believed that Pitt basketball needs, as a bare minimum, at least one win in this brutal stretch of Louisville, Virginia, and North Carolina, to have any hope at getting in to the NCAA Tournament. The Panthers already fell to the Cardinals on Wednesday night, but still have two more chances at a second signature win for their resume.

Pitt put forth a good effort for much of the game at Louisville, but eventually fell short. With that said, what kind of chances do you give the Panthers in their next two games? Neither will be easy, but after the team's win against Notre Dame, is it all that unreasonable to think that the Panthers can't steal one?

The Panthers, of course, will have another chance at a signature win in the ACC Tournament. But for the regular season, these are the last two heavyweights left.

Weigh in with the poll below and use the comments section to expand on your answer, if need be.
