Their defense has been really good this year. Not sure if Ron English got an off-season lobotomy, but something is different. Pitt was able to hit some explosive pass plays against them before Narduzzi corched the game away. They play a ton of zone and can pressure the QB. If they have cleaned up their deep coverage, they could force Beck to be patient and dink and dunk down the field. Their rush defense numbers are a little deceiving, since they have defended RBs really well but struggled against Sluka at JMU and the backup QB at BG popped a meaningless 75 yard run late agaisnt them.

I expect them to try to run the ball a lot against us. Not sure they have any choice. Their OL has struggled to protect Moss and Moss has struggled to protect himself. Bad combo against our DL. All 3 of their RBs have been hurt. They will also be coming off a bye week, so their RBs will be as healthy as they have been all year. Limiting Bell will be key too. He abused Karnley last week against UVA.

Heres the Pitt game from this year:

Yup their defense seem to pop up a lot on pressure numbers posted here about our team.. they get after it and cause havoc, also if some remember they got to cam a few times last year and almost cause a fumble return to house that was called back.. will be a good challenge for oline
