Against the Odds: Pitt is a home underdog to UCF

As expected, Pitt will enter Saturday’s home game against Central Florida as the underdog.

That’s little surprise given the Knights are ranked No. 15 in the nation. Current lines have the Panthers somewhere between 11 ¹⁄₂ and 12-point underdogs.

That’s better than what the line was against Penn State last weekend when the Nittany Lions were favored by around 17 points or so. But that’s also to be expected since Pitt gets this game at home and because the Panthers also had a strong showing against Penn State.

Game time is at 3:30 p.m. on Saturday.

What do you think of this week’s line?
