About Pittsburgh Panthers Basketball

Established in 1905, the Pittsburgh Panthers are an NCAA Division I men’s basketball program competing in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC). Pitt claims two pre-tournament national titles (1928 and 1930), recognized by the Helms Athletic Foundation and Premo-Porretta Power Poll, and the program has a long history of conference success, including Big East regular-season titles in 2001–02, 2002–03, 2003–04, and 2010–11, plus Big East Tournament championships in 2003 and 2008. Over the years, Pitt basketball has been shaped by standout players and leaders such as Charles Smith, DeJuan Blair, Brad Wanamaker, and Levance Fields, along with modern-era coaching pillars Ben Howland and Jamie Dixon.

Pitt plays home games at Petersen Events Center in Oakland (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania). Opened in 2002 and holding approximately 12,500 fans, the arena is known for an intense, tightly packed feel—especially when The Oakland Zoo is in full voice near the court. The venue also serves as a campus recreation and athletics hub, and its hillside setting helps define the unique footprint of game night in Oakland.

In the ACC, Pitt’s schedule brings a steady run of meaningful matchups, and the program’s biggest demand spikes often come from its most emotional rivalries—especially the West Virginia Mountaineers in the Backyard Brawl, plus long-running battles with Syracuse, Georgetown, Villanova, and Connecticut that helped define the Big East era. If there’s a specific rivalry game you’re targeting, browsing Pittsburgh Panthers Basketball tickets early is the smartest move.

• Closest to the action: Courtside and lower-bowl sideline seats — you’ll feel the pace of the game right on top of the action
