The pressure will rise at Etihad Stadium on Saturday night.The AFL ladder dictates as much for eight-placed North Melbourne and seventh-placed Western Bulldogs.Both sides are also desperate to make life uncomfortable for the opposition, highlighting it as a key to victory in their round-20 clash.In the first nine rounds (during an undefeated streak) our pressure was exceptional, Norths Jamie Macmillan said before his 100th match.It probably dropped away a little bit.The last couple of weeks were probably back to our best ... that correlates with victories.The Bulldogs move the footy as well as anyone ... to stop them we need to stop their run.Bulldogs rebounding defender Jason Johannisen suggested the calmer team under pressure would triumph, referencing a low-scoring scrap between the sides in round six.It was 61 to 45, so both teams defences were really strong, Johannisen said.Our hunt and pressure was pretty good (in a last-start loss to Geelong). It was a pretty bruising game.But we struggled to take our opportunities.The Bulldogs have recalled defenders Matthew Boyd and Dale Morris for the match, with Johannisen pleased to have two mentors back in the side.The old dogs are going to help ... their on-field leadership is crucial to how we play, they help set the ground up, he said.Midfielders Tom Liberatore and Jack Macrae, the latest injury concerns in the Bulldogs luckless season, were enforced omissions.As a team were ready to show our depth. Weve done so all year and this is just another challenge, Johannisen said.Johannisen and Macmillan acknowledged the importance of the game, with four rounds remaining before September and seven sides sitting on either 12 or 13 wins.Its the start of a challenging run to the finals for North, who will face Hawthorn, Sydney and Greater Western Sydney.The last couple of weeks weve played eighth versus ninth, eighth versus ninth. Now were seventh against eighth, Macmillan said.Were no stranger to it.Its another massive game for us ... basically theyre all eight-point games for us from here on in.Macmillan was upbeat key forward Jarrad Waite, who underwent hip surgery this week, would be fit by September.Hes walking around really well ... hell work really hard, he said.

PITTSBURGH -- Another fourth-quarter lead gone and another what if loss looming, Pittsburgh responded with a little bit of savvy, luck and a dash of redemption for its beleaguered defense thrown in for good measure to surge past struggling Georgia Tech.First, Scott Orndoff kept his head while hauling in a tipped pass from Nate Peterman the tight end turned into a game-tying 74-yard touchdown with 3:50 to play. Then nose tackle Tyrique Jarrett stuffed Yellow Jackets running back Dedrick Mills on fourth down to give Pitt the ball back with 1:47 left to set up Chris Blewitts bank shot 31-yard field goal as time expired.Just another heart-stopping Saturday for the Panthers.I think its just about believing and never getting down on yourself or on your team, Orndoff said. Just hanging in there.Something Pitt (4-2, 1-1 ACC) is getting used to under coach Pat Narduzzi. The outcome has hung in the balance in the final 2 minutes each of the last five weeks, including a last-second loss to North Carolina two weeks ago in which the Tar Heels converted four fourth-downs on the deciding drive.Thats what made Jarrett and linebacker Matt Galambos stop so satisfying. The clock dwindling, Georgia Tech went for it on fourth-and-1 at its own 34 rather than kick it. Galombos -- who Narduzzi describes as the defenses computer -- sensed a dive play was coming and changed the call right before the snap, leading Jarrett to stand up Mills short of the first down.I happened to guess right, Jarrett said. It was perfect.Pitt drove to the Georgia Tech 12 to set up Blewitts winner, which smacked off the right upright and through as time expired. Its the second straight season Pitt topped the Yellow Jackets on a late kick by Blewitt, whose 52 career field goals are a school record.Called corner pocket, Blewitt joked.Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson defended the decision to go for it rather than kick it and give Pitts offense -- which punted just once all day -- another shot. Instead the Yellow Jackets (3-3) dropped their third straight overall and their sixth straight true road game dating back to 2014.If I to do over again at the end of the game, I probably still would have gone for it but I would have called a different play, Johnson said. I felt tthe way the game was going, I felt like we could make a half-yard and we didnt so thats on me.dddddddddddd Thats my responsibility and Ill take the blame for it.BIG MAN, BIG PLAYPeterman finished 14 of 20 for 192 yards and the long score to Orndoff. The Panthers spread the ball around while running for 215 yards, including a 24-yard run by 300-pound Pitt lineman Brian ONeill on a designed throwback lateral.Pitt offensive coordinator Matt Canada installed the play this week specifically for ONeill, a former tight end. He caught the ball and was surrounded by teammates while being escorted to the end zone.(Canada) told me dont do anything stupid when you score a touchdown because youre going to score a touchdown, ONeill said.THROWBACK FRENZYThe Panthers wore vintage blue-and-gold jerseys in a nod to the programs glory days of the 1970s and had Johnny Majors, the coach when Pitt won the 1976 national title, serve as honorary captain. As sharp as Pitt looked, however, Narduzzi made sure style didnt trump substance.(Narduzzi) told us those yellow helmets arent going to make a tackle for you, defensive end Shakir Soto said.TAKEAWAYGeorgia Tech: The Yellow Jackets were much improved following losses at home to Clemson and Miami but the defense struggled all day and yielded at the end. Johnson, however, remains upbeat even though his teams margin for error in the Coastal Division is gone.I think you can see every team in our division is probably really close, Johnson said. Just like North Carolina beat them on the last play, they beat us on the last play.Pitt: The Panthers are finding plenty of depth around star running back James Conner, who was held to 60 yards and failed to score a touchdown for the first time in 14 games. Eight different Panthers were credited with at least one carry.UP NEXTGeorgia Tech: take a break from ACC play when they host Georgia Southern.
