Just dropping by afterwards to say I enjoyed lurking the last couple of days - you seem to have a more level-headed and knowledgeable group of posters than most fanbases. I am sorry about Dunn - that was a big deal for the outcome of this game.

If you are a fan of analytics, a partner and I do a statistics-based write-up on Buckyville after every Badger game - it's from a Badger perspective, of course, but if you're interested in digging a little below the surface, here it is: https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/buckyville/viewtopic.php?p=2459099#p2459099

Good luck the rest of the season - I hope Dunn is ok, and go beat Brutus!

So towards the end of the first half, PSU has the ball and was driving and it was 3rd down Allar threw a deep pass that floated I dunno almost 10 yards out of bounds. The PSU WR and Minnesota DB had some typical hand fighting. The ref called a PI penalty on the Minn DB. It was the most egregiously bad PI call. Even Gene Steratore said not only was the pass not catchable, but there was no PI. One of the worst calls I have seen. PSU gets the 1st down and scores before half. Without that? They lose.

You don't think these conference refs know the score in regards to getting as many playoff games for their conferences as possible??

I thought it was a questionable call, as well, but I do take issue with the uncatchable part. Does a ball being "uncatchable" mean that under no circumstances can a penalty be called? Can the defensive back just hold and hold and hold, or body slam the receiver to the ground, or even pull his jersey over his helmet, and still not be called for a penalty just because the throw sailed too far out over the line? Giving total dispensation in that setting doesn't seem right to me. What if the QB throws it away intentionally because the receiver isn't where he's supposed to be because he's being interfered with?

What the hell was up with not blitzing today??

Pitt needs the DL front 4 to step up and put pressure on the quarterback. When you blitz it all the time it puts pressure on the DBs the LBS aren't dropping to help out and you have an open space there. Might have been Louisville's speed at rd and wr. The DL needs to get up field on passing downs to help out the pass defense. Fitz might be the player next season or look to the portal for a pass rusher. Fix the OL first.

Cannot understate the importance of these next 3 games

P
He has some aggressive passes and I feel at least 1 or 2 of his early turnovers were partially teammates not being ready. The Austin pass was beautiful. Not all turnovers are created equal. The one vs WVU was awful but Lowe driving into 3 players was doomed from the start. I find less fault in AD trying to thread the needle, which seems to be his passing MO so far. Can he create shots though? It didn’t seem like Lowe or Ish were looking for him to shoot, but can he develop into a player who can step back and hit. There is plenty of time for him and Cummings to develop. ACC isn’t murderers row.
