The Morning Pitt: 11/4/2024 - Monday thoughts on Saturday's blowout

Chris Peak
Pitt's first loss of the season was an ugly one, and it created a whole lot of questions. On the Monday edition of the Morning Pitt, we're thinking about that game, its impact and what needs to be improved right away for the Panthers to get back on track.

That’s well played.

On a side note, I’m disappointed that the Point is good enough for the VP, Katy Perry and the Black Eyed Peas (a decade ago), but it’s not good enough for the NFL Draft. Also wondering why Mr Rooney didn’t lend his stadium to the Harris campaign.

In the end, maybe it wasnt since its moving to Swissvale. I think Rooney would have lended the stadium but its too big and crowd size weirdly only matters in college football and presidential elections. She probably only draws 20K-40K which is too small for Acrisure.

Where is the NFL Draft going to be? Point State Park was a no-brainer.

Good objective post. I know there is some doom and gloom on the board but your assessment is not that far off. Bad tackling extended drives and created scoring opportunities for SMU. A bad PITT turnover and some inexperience by a young QB (it happens...he is still very good) cost PITT another 10 points. I think the delta is about 17 points. The final score should have been closer like 41-35 SMU.

SMU is a good team at home at Homecoming weekend. This was a tough game. We will bounce back against Virginia.

You’re including Yarnell’s garbage time TDs in your reassessment of what the actual score should have been?

Virginia is a pivotal game

Syracuse is okay. I wouldn't call them good. They needed a 4th quarter comeback to beat a Virginia Tech team playing without its starting quarterback this past week, and it was at home.

They were also without their stud RB.

Drones and Tuten are their entire offense, with it mostly being Tuten.

Most analytic models have Cuse at like a 60-ish ranking.

I think that’s probably about right.
