During its last four games, Pittsburgh picked up a win against Villanova but also took a step backwards with losses to RPI #35 West Virginia and RPI #30 Seton Hall.
Pittsburgh is weak against top competition, with a 5-10 record against the RPI Top 100 that includes a 2-7 record against the RPI Top 50 and a 1-4 record against AP ranked teams. While the Panthers have two quality wins including RPI #35 West Virginia and AP #10 Georgetown, they're also weighed down by two bad losses including RPI #150 Rutgers and RPI #180 DePaul.
