Ohio +14 over Pittsburgh
Both teams are coming off disappointing losses and want to get out of the hole. Pittsburgh's head coach Dave Wannstedt is clearly trying to get used to the college scene while Frank Solich of Ohio was a legendary coach at Nebraska for many years. Last year Pittsburgh had to rally in the fourth quarter to beat Furman and Temple. That is not playing very good football. Both teams met last year and Pitt walked away with a 24-3 victory. Ohio did turn the ball over three times one which went for a score. Pitt could only rack up 49 passing yards on the Ohio defense last year which is a very good unit especially around the goal line. Last years game should have been a lot closer. Key turnovers and penalties gave the Bobcats no shot. This is the first time Pitt will be playing in Athens, Ohio which will make them a little uncomfortable. I am not calling for an upset but it wouldn't shock me.
