It's an ACC Championship rematch of last November's game, won 2-1 by the Tigers! Winner tonight will receive the ACC's automatic NCAA bid, and the loser will get an at-large bid on Monday. Kickoff is at 7:00 on ACC Network, and I'll have live coverage from Riggs right here!

Pitt just had the first corner of the game, and the Tigers easily cleared it.

Seye got the start tonight. I think it's just his second start back from injury. The sophomore scored the only goal in the 1-0 win over Pitt as a freshman and the opening goal in their 2-1 win last November for the ACC Championship.

Tigers have had a few good opportunities. One after a corner and another for Seye, who has scored the opening goal in the last 2 games against Pitt.

Tigers almost took a 2-0 lead on a point-blank shot, but the Pitt keeper made a tremendous diving save.

Seye just had another good chance on a break away. Tigers have been knocking at the door and dominating possession since they took the 1-0 lead!

Little scuffle between the teams at midfield just before they headed to their locker rooms for halftime. Tigers dominated the first half and should probably be up 3 or 4 goals, but Pitt is still in it thanks to some great saves by their keeper and some bad luck for the Tigers. TIGERS LEAD 1-0 AT THE HALF. |

Still 1-0 ten mins into the 2nd half. Tigers just had another real good chance with a great touch pass by Seye inside the box, but the shot on goal was saved.

WHEW! Tigers just dodged a bullet on a whiff by Pitt. Wide open player on a cross should have had a volley in the back of the net, but he missed it. TIGERS LEAD 1-0 WITH 20 MINS LEFT. |

GOOOOOOAL!!!! Banger by defender Isaiah Reid off an assist by Seye! His 2nd career goal gives the Tigers some insurance with 7 mins left! TIGERS LEAD 2-0 WITH 7 MINS LEFT. |
