Pittsburgh's men's basketball team is the new No. 1 ranked team in men's college basketball after North Carolina and Connecticut's losses over the weekend. On Saturday, Pitt defeated then-number eight Georgetown on the road. But the Panthers probably shouldn't get too comfortable with their ranking - the rugged Big East schedule (currently with nine teams ranked in the top 25) will make it tough for everybody. How many league losses with the Big East champion have this year?
