Pitt’s improved pass D will get tested by Irish

GameSetMatch — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 19:39:09 +0000

One of the biggest reasons for Pitt’s recent surge has been its improved pass defense. This week’s game against Notre Dame will show just how much better the Panthers have gotten at protecting their air space.

“This will be a major test,” Pittsburgh defensive coordinator Phil Bennett said. “If there’s a better throwing team in the country, I don’t know who it is.”

A few weeks ago, a visit from Jimmy Clausen, Golden Tate and Michael Floyd might have spelled disaster for Bennett’s defense. Buffalo shredded the Panthers for 433 passing yards and four touchdowns, and NC State dealt Pitt its only loss thanks to 322 yards in the air and Russell Wilson’s four passing touchdowns.

No. 14 Pitt looks to regain offensive rhythm

GameSetMatch — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 20:09:35 +0000

Pittsburgh’s offense was playing so well, the Panthers almost didn’t want a week off.

The timing was there, so was the consistency. Bill Stull was effectively spreading the ball among receivers Jonathan Baldwin, Dorin Dickerson, Mike Shanahan, Oderick Turner and Cedric McGee. Dion Lewis was averaging nearly 150 yards rushing over a three-game stretch.

The 14th-ranked Panthers had everything going during a 41-14 victory over South Florida on Oct. 24 in which they didn’t punt once, only to be forced to shut it down during an off week.

The Panthers (7-1, 4-0 in Big East) probably would have preferred to keep playing after averaging 34.25 points in their first eight games, or nearly a touchdown per game more than at this point last season.

Pitt center set for showdown with Rutgers

GameSetMatch — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 20:08:19 +0000

Pitt center Robb Houser arrived at spring drills last March with his body noticeably out of proportion.

The 6-foot-2, 285-pound senior boasted the thick biceps of a Division I lineman — and one spindly, undersized leg.

“My arms,” he said, “were bigger than my right leg.”

Through a lot of work, he has evened things out.

Houser, who sustained a gruesome, season-ending right ankle injury in last year’s 54-34 loss to Rutgers, will meet the Scarlet Knights (4-1, 0-1 Big East) again in a nationally televised game Friday night.
