Hmm. Lets see, Making it to the Big East Championship, but losing. Check. Playing a mid-major school from Ohio in the opening round. Check. Beating them soundly. Check. The expected Second Round opponent, a major name in college basketball, upset. Check. Last year, Pitt got to the BIg East Championship game, but fell to Syracuse. Pitt trounced Kent State in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament. Everyone expected them to face Kansas in a 4/5 game. Kansas, though, was upset by Bradley. Bradley then knocked out Pitt.
In 2007, Pitt again goes to the Big East Championship game and this time gets humiliated by Georgetown. In the opening round, Pitt has no real problems with Wright State. Duke was expected to be the team Pitt would see in the second round, but instead the Blue Devils were beaten by VCU.
Just a coincidence, to be sure. An uncomfortable, deja vu, rerun of a coincidence. Nothing else. Sure.
