Panthers Avoid a Pitt Fall

It was the 99th loss in 99 tries by No. 16 seeds, but a least it was memorable.

East region top seed Pitt looked like a team that did not expect a game when their opening-round tilt with East Tennessee State started. By the time it finished, relief was visible from the players through coach Jamie Dixon. Pitt was sloppy with the ball the entire game and could not match the energy that came from the Buccaneers.

Ultimately, Pitt's superior talent and the best player on the court, DeJuan Blair, won out. Pitt survives a scare and does get to move to the second round.
