THE SETUP
Pitt resumes ACC play after the holiday break against Notre Dame. The Panthers finished their non-conference schedule with back-to-back wins over St. John's and Jacksonville. Pitt's first ACC game had a late letdown in a last-second one-point loss to Virginia on Dec. 3. Now, Jeff Capel tries to get his young team to have its first three-game win streak of the season in a year the Panthers rank dead last in the ACC with an average of 60.7 points per game.
