Pittsburgh vs. North Carolina: Live updates, score, results, highlights, for Saturday's NCAA Football game
Live scores, highlights and updates from the Pittsburgh vs. North Carolina football game
North Carolina have enjoyed a two-game homestead but will soon have to dust off their road jerseys. They will face off against the Pittsburgh Panthers at 8:00 p.m. ET on Saturday at Acrisure Stadium. Unlike North Carolina, Pittsburgh will be limping in after taking a loss.
Last Saturday, North Carolina didn't have too much trouble with Minnesota at home as they won 31-13.
North Carolina's success was spearheaded by the efforts of WR Nate McCollum, who picked up 165 receiving yards and one touchdown, and QB Drake Maye, who threw for 414 yards and two touchdowns. Those 414 passing yards set a new season-high mark for Maye.
Meanwhile, Pittsburgh's 8-4 record from last season has become a distant memory after another unsuccessful outing. They fell 17-6 to West Virginia on Saturday.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, the Panthers weren't very productive in the air and finished the game with only 81 passing yards. That's the fewest passing yards they've managed all season.
Looking ahead, the favorite in this one, as the experts expect to see them win by 7.5 points. This contest will be North Carolina's third straight as the favorites (a stretch that saw them go 2-1 against the spread).
North Carolina steamrolled past Pittsburgh in their previous matchup last October by a score of 42-24. The rematch might be a little tougher for North Carolina since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
