Western Michigan Broncos (0-2) vs Pittsburgh Panthers (1-1)

Pitt has revenge on the mind and is still one of the more talented rosters in the ACC. Western Michigan upset Pitt last season and it was the main reason Pitt was held out of the playoff conversations. Pitt should not take it easy on WMU at all, and although QB injuries are present for Pitt, this is still a ground game that I can trust to get it done against a weak WMU defense. WMU is not putting virtually any pressure on opposing QBs and is allowing the opposition to run all over its defense. Ball State of all teams ran for 5.0 yards per carry and had 447 total yards of offense. Pitt's defense should show up in this game and make it difficult for Salopek and the Broncos to do much of anything in the passing game. I think Pittsburgh wins this game by 14+ on the road.
