    Pitt VB beats Penn State 3-0

    And be careful, there will also be elbow-patched profs and weed-reeking TAs angrily demanding the administration reign in this out of control volleyball program.

    Lots of UCF Fans

    What a surprise. Winning football brings fans which brings revenue. Our administration should consider that approach sometime.

    Packer and Durham. ACCN talk show.

    Well, success is not binary. The network is rolled out to a good number of carriers, which is certainly better fewer. So that's success, relative to what might have been expected. But without the Big Cahuna (Comcast), they can't maximize advertising rates, as well as that additional revenue...

    Bye bye AB.....

    He actually was pretty clever. But couldn't hide his past perversions. In this climate, even New England couldn't ignore that, especially after their owner's own pervert scandal. What is interesting is that these victims (Pittsburgh based, hmmm) didn't surface until AB was with New England...

    Bye bye AB.....

    AB was too low key and even complimentary of the Patriots in his 'farewell' tweet. They must have given him a sweet check along with the release.

    Bye bye AB.....

    Wow. A team that knew all about Aaron Hernandez and gleefully kept him for years... lasts 11 days with Antonio

    True Freshman QB 1st Road Start

    Oh i agree. Bring 7 and risk the RTP to destroy him early and often.

    True Freshman QB 1st Road Start

    Especially in "the hardest place to kick in football"

    True Freshman QB 1st Road Start

    Jamesis Winston coming to mind? It'll probably be more like that. And expect another effortless 57 yard field goal by their kicker while we clang another 19 yarder.

    OT: Buccos

    Based on persistent threads on this site and others, there is still anger, meaning there's still passion for the team. Which means that should they get randomly lucky wth a decent team as they did a couple years back, people would still respond. If there were no threads, no posts, no anger...

    Pack Heinz

    Really, all that is left as far as reasons to attend or follow a game like tomorrow's is that once a decade or so for a top ranked team that we knock off. Since 2016 is an eternity away it might be our time tomorrow. We've already whiffed twice on making some kind of positive statement, with...

    OT: NFL QB's

    I don't like that BR was injured but frankly the disturbing trend of how things were going with the Steelers the past couple of years, his loss might provide a badly needed kick in the tail for this team from the coaches to the players. I'm not delusional that Rudolph is 'better' than BR ... but...

    Antonio Alfano

    Well, UPMC has some tremendous assisted living facilities for the elderly and infirmed. Put Gramma up in Sherwood Oaks or similar. A team intern can wheel her to Bingo each Tuedsay night. But get that kid down to the South Side stat!

    What I REALLY don’t get about trolls

    How about a Philosophy course? After all the crown jewel of the university IS its renowned Philosophy program. PHIL 401 - WE STINK, THEREFORE WE TROLL Note the honorary numbering of the class to commemorate the 4th and 1 call last week, the latest iteration of Pitting. Could also number grad...

    Expecting letdown against UCF

    Our offense got so euphoric on its exhaustive sojourns to get the ball inside the 5 yd line twice that it experienced massive letdowns from there each time. :D

    Bob Nutting = Edward Smith

    Is it any better when Pitt's chancellor and AD stand in front of media (usually at the presser for the latest coach hire) and earnestly state that competing for national championships is the goal? It's just obligatory stuff to say for obligatory interviews. Then they go back to conducting...

    Video and transcript: Narduzzi on UCF, tempo and a lot more

    Sadder still, Pat likely was happy to get the Rudolph questions, instead of any more on that bad 4th down decision.

    Steelers send next years

    Yes. The Steelers have some cracks in the foundation of late but they still have earned enough gravitas to earn confidence that they can weather the current storm. In 2 or 3 years and it is still chaos or worse, that's when you wonder if they are in trouble. Meanwhile to be honest I'm kinda...

    RE:Scheduling - Heather Gets It

    100% correct. Now expect 50 subsequent posts that totally ignore this and call for spending whatever it takes for 3 home and nones with the 3 guaranteed easiest. As if they're sitting there waiting and will give us a discount (or for free). Message Board Fantasies are the YouPorn of sports...

    Expecting letdown against UCF

    Agreed. The coaches have to drill that into the psyches of any players who don't realize this. I can easily see it not looking close at the end if UCF simply blows past our D for late scores, and our questionable offense ... but I expect it to be far better than the games like the last UCF game...
