The extra time will have given Pitt an opportunity to do what the have done very well since 2000: find ways to attack VT's weaknesses with their strengths. The extra time to tweak their scheme against the new look VT is a unique advantage not available to any other opponent I believe. That being said I would think CJF, CBF, and CBC will throw some wrinkles in to offset it. I also don't think the game plan will be to try and out slug Pitt as has been the case in the past. Pitt certainly has an advantage but it's not rest.
