US EditionPat Narduzzi Heaps Praise on No. 9 Notre Dame but Downplays Stakes of Saturday's Game
Pat Narduzzi highlighted Notre Dame's coaching and talent while stressing Pitt's focus on consistent wins amid College Football Playoff scrutiny and ESPN's national spotlight.
- On Monday, Pat Narduzzi, Pitt Panthers head coach, downplayed the stakes against No. 9 Notre Dame, emphasizing focusing on execution and taking games one at a time.
- A Sunday announcement confirmed ESPN's College GameDay will air a full-length edition from Acrisure Stadium for the first time in 20 years, placing Pittsburgh's North Shore game on a national stage ahead of Saturday's broadcast.
- Scarred by last season's collapse after a 7-0 then 0-6 finish, Pitt Panthers enter this week on a five-game streak, but Narduzzi warned against tying the season's fortunes to one game.
- How Pitt performs will affect how the College Football Playoff selection committee views Pitt and the ACC, but the result will not alter the ACC championship race.
- A win over a top-10 team would boost Pitt in the rankings with two marquee opponents left, while Notre Dame's Jeremiah Love and Leonard Moore draw national attention.
