Free NCAA Pick September 8th - Pittsburgh (-8)
Pittsburgh (-8) VS. Cincinnati 8:00 ET ESPN2I'm hoping last weeks effort vs. UVA wasn't a smokescreen and the Panthers don't revert to their road form of a year ago where they lost to Ohio SU as 2-TD road chalks. I don't think that will be the case, and I'm fairly confident they head home 2-0 with their first road win and cover of the season. Pitt comes off a complete thrashing of the Virginia Cavaliers that saw them succeed offensively, defensively, and via special teams. QB Palko and the Panther offense had a much different swagger to them. He finished 17 of 22 for 283 yards with three touchdowns including a pair of 70+ yard TD passes. Their rushing attack kept the Cavaliers defense honest by churning out 107 yards as well, and the Panthers balanced attack should be a major problem for the Bearcats to contend with. The defense clamped down on Virginia's attack as well limiting them to 52 yards rushing and a shade over 200 yards of offense overall. The Bearcats do fall into my improved list for the 2006 season, but I'm not sure they'll have enough to keep the high-flying Panthers from storming Nippert Stadium and administering another Cincy beat down. It's just to early in the season. Cincy was a very young squad a year ago that suffered enormously in its first go round as a Big East member. They gained confidence last week by shutting out the mighty Colonels of Eastern. Get your
