The Panthers are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 road games and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games following a ATS loss. The Broncos are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 vs. ACC and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games in September. The under is 4-1 in Panthers last 5 games overall. The over is 5-2 in Broncos last 7 games overall.
The Pittsburgh Panthers should be eager for a bounce back performance, and they're the better team here in terms of talent. However, Pitt has been lousy defensively through 2 games and has quarterback questions in terms of injuries after last week. Pittsburgh also has offensive line issues. The Western Michigan Broncos play their best ball at home, and they can run the ball some. Pitt should be favored and probably should win, but I don't love laying double digits here. Give me the Broncos and the points.
