Three decades later, loss in North Carolina still stings Pitt
Exactly 30 years ago this week, the Pitt football team traveled to North Carolina to play an ACC school. The result was a devastating 17-7 loss at UNC on Sept. 22, 1979 that all but ruined any hopes of another national title for a talented Pitt team that would vanquish every other opponent to finish 11-1. That sloppy, turnover-plagued loss to the unranked Tar Heels still haunts members of the 1979 Panthers. (Pittsburgh Tribune-Review)
