Pittsburgh started the year 5-0 with a 2-0 record in the ACC, but they lost three straight games conference games before defeating the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets heading into their bye week. With a 3-3 record in the ACC, Pittsburgh has to win its three remaining games to have a shot at the conference title.

With that said, here are five things to know about Pittsburgh. Very good home team Pittsburgh has a record of 6-3.

The FSU Seminoles are back on the road this week, travelling to play the Pitt Panthers on Friday night. It is FSU's third time this season not playing on Saturday, and ESPN has revealed the announcing crew for the game. Mike Monaco will be the play-by-play announcer, with Jordan Rodgers serving as the color commentator, and Dana Boyle reporting from the sideline at Acrisure Stadium. Unlike FSU, Pitt (6-3, 3-3 ACC) has had plenty of time to prepare for the game. The Panthers were on a bye last week and will look to keep their momentum going after beating the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets back on Oct. 31. The win snapped a three-game losing streak for Pitt, who lost starting quarterback Mason Heintschel the week before the losing streak to a season-ending injury. FSU (4-5, 2-4) is looking to win consecutive road games after losing their previous 12.
