Media notes: Pitt | North Carolina

Pitt tries to rebound from its first road loss of the season on Saturday against a tough opponent in North Carolina that's won four of its last five games. Jeff Capel noted Pitt met travel issues over the weekend that disrupted the team's preparation schedule, and now the Panthers must find answers in a shorter amount of time. Justin Champagnie leads the ACC in points per game and rebounds per game after winning his third ACC Player of the Week award Tuesday. We'll see if he helps right the Panthers, who are 2-2 against North Carolina with Capel as head coach.

Gates open to the media at 6 p.m.
