For Pitt:
Iowa is a big out of conference game. Iowa is a good program and if Pitt wins this game it will be a sign of the type of season the Panthers will have.
Notre Dame: both of these teams will need this win and I hope that the team with the most success thus far in the season wins it.
UConn in conference. Embarrssingly enough, (not to bash UConn at all) but Pitt has lost the last two times they visited Storrs. It would be nice to get this win.
West Virginia is next for obvious reasons and hopefully it will have implications for both teams!
For my beloved Irish:
Michigan: I am interested to see how the Irish compare here. While it is unlikely, I would love to get a win against the Blue, could provide a much needed confidence boost to this young team
Pitt: see above.
Southern Cal: Hopefully this will be a game where the Irish compete hard and play the Trojans close. This should be a game where ND has built up to through the year, improving each game. SC v. ND is always a game I enjoy (more so in the Holtz years than lately!!! LOL).
