[Protes]

#H2P BIG WIN!!!!!!!!

 

[pittbb80]

Gents. This team is legit

 

[HailToPitt725]

Capel becomes only the second Duke assistant ever to beat Coach K. Has to be the first win against the Blue Devils since the 2016 senior recognition game. H2P!

 

[docpanther26]

Great win! Any time you beat Duke it’s a big, big win!!!

 

[Pitt2006]

So was Jalen the reason duke was +4.5? Makes tonight much more impressive for the win.

 

[DruidTM]

Great win PITT!!!!

 

[PA_Panther]

Great win, beat the living pee outta Boston College and Onto the next one.

 

[JD1976]

Hell yeah!!!!!!

 

[TWPitt]

Only bad thing about this win is not being able to be at the Pete!!! H2P!!

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

Never trailed

Yeah, we did. Hurt hit that three to go up two late in the first half, and then on the next possession Johnson hit a three to put Pitt right back up. That was Duke's only lead of the game.

Great job by the boys! I got tired of the announcers referring to Pitt as an "old team".

We have what, one senior on the roster? Brown?

 

[PittPanther44]

X is like the Jameis Winston of hoops. Adds entertainment and keeps both teams in it

Champ is just special.

 

[Tonyt66]

Great win but on a side note Femi would not be allowed to leave practice without shooting 500 free throws he's the worst in the ACC and for a combo guard with the ball in his hand he has to get better.

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

X is trying to lose this game all by himself. He needs to understand he's at least the third option at this point if not the fourth.

And then he won it with 3 huge possessions

As someone said the other day Femi shot 80% on FTs during his prep school year but is having problems due to the severely broken shooting arm he had last summer. Hopefully his FT and other shooting will improve going forward.

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

MONster rebound by Femi

Reminds me of a young Brandin Knight -
Right down to to awful free throw shooting

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

Yeah, we did. Hurt hit that three to go up two late in the first half, and then on the next possession Johnson hit a three to put Pitt right back up. That was Duke's only lead of the game.

I posted too fast
Meant in the second half

 

[Tonyt66]

He was shooting 3's so I don't want to here that crap. That's the easiest shot you can get it's called not practicing them enough.

They rode Dukes jock all night ... got boners when the game got close...

 

[Pantherguy4]

HAIL TO PITT! GREAT WIN!

Yeah he has shown some twisting and jump shooting so why not free throws? Gawd his shots don’t even have a chance with a friendly rim. Time to call Rick Barry...

I think it's gotten to his head. He was really showing a lot of frustration after missing those last two last night.
