Pitt football is broadcast on the Pitt ISP Sports Network. Game broadcasts will air over a loyal network of stations, including flagships 94.5 3WS (WWSW) and Fox Sports Radio 970 (WBGG-AM) in Pittsburgh.

Hillgrove's accurate and descriptive style paints the picture for Pitt fans listening to the network. Hillgrove has a long association with the Panthers and Pittsburgh sports scene. Prior to taking over the play-by-play duties, Hillgrove served as the Panthers' color analyst from 1970-73. He has also served as the play-by-play man for Pitt basketball broadcasts since 1969. A popular and well-known Pittsburgh sports personality, Hillgrove has long been a Panther ambassador of good will. He is a 1962 graduate of Duquesne and has also been the Pittsburgh Steelers' play-by-play announcer since 1995. Hillgrove was named the 2007 recipient of the prestigious Chris Schenkel Award for excellence in college football broadcasting. Bill Fralic, one of college football's greatest offensive linemen during his Pitt playing career from 1981-84, enters his fifth year as color analyst. Fralic was a three-time first team All- American, earning unanimous status his final two seasons. He became the first offensive lineman to twice finish in the top 10 of the Heisman Trophy balloting, placing sixth in 1984 and eighth in 1983. The second player taken overall in the 1985 NFL Draft, Fralic went on to an exceptional pro career from 1985-93, playing eight years with the Atlanta Falcons and his final season with the Detroit Lions. He was selected to the Pro Bowl four times.
