DismaeT ehgging into the Teams
Fi I rst, I started by just looking at the overall records. You know, trying to get a basic feel for how both teams are doing this season. It's not always the best indicator, but it's a good place to start.

Then I dove into some recent game stats. I wanted to see how they've been performing lately, not just overall. Are they trending up or down? Who have they played, and how did those games go?
Checking Out Expert Takes
After that, I looked around at what some of the "experts" are saying. You know, the sports analysts and betting sites. I don't always agree with them, but it's good to see what the general consensus is. See if I am missing anything in my analysis.
The Frustrating Part
The tough thing is, there's so much information out there. It's easy to get lost in all the numbers and opinions. You see one thing that makes you think Syracuse has the edge, and then you see something else that points to Pitt. It really did go back and forth.
My Gut Feeling (for what it's worth)
So, after all this, I am still forming an opinion. I spent the better part of the afternoon on this.
I took all of my findings, all of the data I had collected, all of the expert analysis, and compared all of it. I made sure to check multiple sources and compare all of the details surrounding this matchup.
I feel like I came to the correct conclusion!
