GAME THREAD - PITT vs VIRGINIA TECH .....

[goalieman]

Pitt with 16 players out but VT with 12 players out ...... might be interesting.

 

[9nationalchampionships]

Let's punch this in!

 

[rpastir]

That was a nice delayed draw.

 

[9nationalchampionships]

Settling for FG.... ugh

 

[President Stache]

Let’s go Pitt

 

[rpastir]

left 4 points on the field there. Another stalled drive in the red zone.

 

[DruidTM]

Good first drive too bad Kenny over threw there

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

Decent start, but you need to score TD’s to win.

Pitt pre-snap penalty in the red zone hurt.

 

[Usuallyunusual-partdeux]

Other than that last pass Pickett looked surgical pitching the rock. Hopefully a sign that he can have his way with this secondary.

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

Good series by the defense. Uniforms look good.

 

[Gunga_Galunga]

Good series by the defense. Uniforms look good.

Agree on both

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

This goes for all teams - Why are these kids that test positive on the sideline? It makes no sense to me.

 

[4upmc]

Another damn WR drop smh

 

[rpastir]

Here we go with the dropped passes again.

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

Shocky needs to catch that ball. Followed by bad punt.

 

[California Gold]

wide receiver crew still got a bad case of the drops

 

[rpastir]

T.O.!

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

Big Turnover! The defense looks good so far. That was a weak penalty.

 

[goalieman]

celebration penalty against Pitt after turnover ...... HURTS ! ..... now interception by VT to get ball back.

 

[rpastir]

.....and we give it right back. Damn.

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

Bad throw by Pickett - That was a gift INT.

 

[runshadyrun]

too many stupid penalties, been the same for years

 

[TheFormula]

Neil Odonnell type stuff right there

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

A big thank you to Fuente. That was a bad decision and call.

 

[runshadyrun]

surprise, killer penalty. At least we lead the country in something

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

Turner is having a good game so far.

 

[rpastir]

Turner doing some nice running after catching the ball.

 

[9nationalchampionships]

We can not score TDs....damnit

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

3 is better than nothing, but need to score TD’s.

 

[ThePanthers]

We need to fall down at the 21 and then pass to the end zone. Get inside the 20 we get stuck.

 

[pittdrum]

It is amazing how poor this offense is in the red zone.

H2P

It is amazing how poor this offense is in the red zone.

H2P

Red zone is where the lack of run game and lack of TEs really shows.

 

[rpastir]

The thingnthat drives me crazy about having to settlemfor field goals is that although Pitt has totally controlled this game so far, VT can catch Pitt in a busted coverage and take the lead with one play. Let’s hope that doesn’t happen.

 

[9nationalchampionships]

Good rush D when everyone knew Hooker was running

 

[4upmc]

3 is better than nothing, but need to score TD’s.

yep but for us to even move the ball fairly well is pretty impressive. No Addison, no Wayne, 3 starting OL out etc. The fact Tipton is playing a lot shows the lack of weapons and depth at WR. Is it me or does Mack seem to give a half ass effort many times?

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

Our defense came to play today. Good to see.

he went from our best wr to our worse

 

[runshadyrun]

gotta love the team discipline

I agree with you on Mack. Far too many drops and it doesn’t look as though he goes 100% all the time.
