No. 23 Pittsburgh looks to prove itself as Clemson visits
Associated PressPITTSBURGH — Kenny Pickett didn’t return to Pittsburgh for one last run to launch a dark horse Heisman Trophy campaign. It’s the kind of showdown Pickett believed was possible when he stunned coach Pat Narduzzi and announced last December he was going to stick around rather than head to the NFL. “I know a lot of guys are excited to go out there and play.” While Pickett’s breakout has caught some by surprise, longtime Clemson defensive coordinator Brent Venables isn’t among them. As long we don’t shoot ourselves in the foot, we’re going to explode.” If they can do it on Saturday, the Tigers will restore a sense of order in the ACC and send Pitt back onto the treadmill of “OK but not great” that it has been on for the overwhelming majority of Narduzzi’s seven-year tenure. “I don’t know who makes those decisions,” Narduzzi said.
