Pitt defeats Villanova for fourth straight win

Well, yesterday's matchup at the Pete it was a far cry from the 2009 NCAA Regional Finals when Villanova knocked off Pitt to advance to the Final Four--the two teams entered yesterday's game a combined 6-14 in the Big East--but for Pitt, the 79-70 victory was the latest "must win" for the team after stumbling to 0-7 in the conference to start the season.

With Travon Woodall back in the lineup, the Panthers look like one of the best teams in the Big East.

Pitt is 15-9 overall, and probably needs at least another five victories if they're going to get serious consideration for the NCAA tournament.

I think it's safe to finally put the Panthers on the bubble.
