Pitt heads into this contest off a bye week. The Panthers last played Sept. 21 when they decimated FCS Youngstown State 73-17. A quick-snap Pitt offense ranks 6th in the nation in total yards per game (522.8) and 5th in scoring (48.5 points per game).

North Carolina lost 21-20 at Duke Saturday, suffering its 2nd straight loss. The Tar Heels, who were 1.5-point favorites, led their in-state rivals 20-0 midway through the 3rd quarter, but Duke scored the final 3 touchdowns — 2 in the 4th quarter — to claim the win.
