Mustangs and Panthers Battle in Birmingham

On Saturday afternoon the SMU Mustangs will face the Pitt Panthers for the 6th time in school history. It will be their first meeting since the 1983 Cotton Bowl, which SMU won and later claimed a National Title. But this is just a small side note to this game. Pitt is making its second consecutive trip to the Compass Bowl and to Birmingham. They won over Kentucky last year in the Compass Bowl.
