When I talked with the grad director of Pitt about a year ago he said their strong suits were Experimental and Econometrics. The grad director has changed since then though. I know at an undergrad level their economics department is very rigorous. It might be a good safety school for you, despite the rivalry.

Maybe you can take Ph.D. Micro or Macro fall semester at Pitt through the Consortium if your schedule isn't too crazy already. That would give you a little insight into their program and boost your application credentials. I don't know much about U of Washington, so you'll have to turn to someone else for that.
