Pitt’s Narduzzi Dares Poll Voters After 5-0 Start

Unranked Pitt just stomped Virginia Tech on the road to move to 5-0, and head coach Pat Narduzzi is done asking nicely for respect. “We got a hell of a football team,” he said. “Any of those voters out there, if they wake their ass up, maybe they might figure that out.” The Panthers aren’t just winning—they’re doing it ugly, the way real contenders do. If the pollsters keep sleeping, they’ll have no one to blame but themselves when Pitt’s still standing in December.

NCAA Dodges Another Bullet in Eligibility Fight

The NCAA just notched another W in court, this time in Ohio. The First District Court of Appeals reversed a preliminary injunction in the Ohio 5-in-5 eligibility case, meaning those players stay ineligible—for now. The NCAA’s legal team is on a heater, but don’t expect this to be the last challenge. Every win just buys them time before the next lawsuit drops.

ACC Schools and Lawmakers Gang Up on PCSA Expansion Rules

The ACC isn’t just complaining—they’re organizing. 21 House members (13 from Florida alone) signed a letter pushing to axe the expansion provision in the Protect College Sports Act (PCSA). Meanwhile, Florida State, Clemson, UNC, and Miami sent their own letter to Speaker Mike Johnson, demanding two key changes:

• Drop the independence requirement in Section 205
• Bump the conference membership limit to 22

This isn’t just noise—it’s a full-court press. The ACC’s southern schools are sick of being boxed in, and they’re leaning on every connection they’ve got. If the PCSA gets amended, it’ll be because these guys out-hustled the rest of the country.
