No. 19 Pitt is off to its best start in more than 40 years, but Syracuse should present a formidable challenge when the teams match up Thursday night on the Panthers' home field.

The Panthers (6-0, 2-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) have not been 7-0 since 1982, but they can continue their splendid season with a win over the Orange (5-1, 2-1). Syracuse, which landed two spots out of the Top 25 this week, likely will join the rankings with a win over Pitt, adding an element of intrigue to Thursday's affair.
