Post-Gazette Pitt insiders Stephen Thompson and Abby Schnable break down the Panthers' 31-24 overtime loss to West Virginia on Saturday in the 108th edition of the Backyard Brawl.
How did the Panthers let this game slip away in such embarrassing fashion, when they had so many chances to win? Did coach Pat Narduzzi fail to prepare his team for the rivalry game environment? How can the Panthers clean up the penalties that plagued them in Morgantown? And how can Eli Holstein and the offense capitalize on the many trips to the red zone they squandered on Saturday?
Does the defense's performance leave any positives to glean from Saturday's game? How will injuries to Desmond Reid and a variety of defenders affect the Panthers heading into ACC play? And did fatigue play a part in the Panthers crumbling late? Our duo answers those questions and more.
