Friday night on the KDKA nightly sports call, the moderator (RW) said that Wake is terrible and Pitt should win easily!!!! I think he should go back to his usual sports program which includes, 3 interviews of the Steelers, 3 interviews of the Penguins and that is it! And to think KDKA fired a real pro, Jeff Verzyla.

Most people expected a Pitt win. I am a season ticket holder and people were pissed. Seriously pissed off over the last 3 minutes. Lots of grumbling as we left the building. and giving away Julius page posters did not assuage the vitriol. Sorry .
People on this very board said the same thing because Pitt fans never learn. This team is not good enough yet to consider any other team "bad" and an easy win.
1) Only a fool would say Pitt should win 10 ACC games at this point. That is what they were alluding to.
2) They were trying to start Pitt talk. Why is that a negative? Call the show and talk Pitt. People complain when the media doesn’t talk Pitt.

When most people expect a Pitt win, that is when I know something will go wrong.
Its the Pitt way.
I somewhat enjoyed that show back in the day when Jory Rand would get prank called on a regular basis.
I really enjoy listening to Paul Zeise. He is clever and funny. With that said I'm not so sure he knows what he's talking about when it comes to Pitt mens basketball. He was the one who emphatically stated that Jamie Dixon was NOT going to TCU. He also very much supported the hiring of Kevin Stallings and said Pitt needed to "open up their offense" and get away from Dixon's style. Friday night he said Pitt would win on Saturday because Wake Forest stinks and Pitt would win several more because many teams in this year's ACC stink. I guess some people have the gift of gab which gets them a good job.
Well, computer models predicted Pit to win by 6-7 points. No one should have expected more than a tight win with some free throws down the stretch making it to that 6-7 points. However, it was a game Pitt should have been expected to win at home. They didn't.
As DC said, we were favored by 7. Of course, it was likely to be close. However, if this team was going to get out of the cellar this year, this was a game they should have won.
While that is true about Zeise, he pays attention more than anyone else in Pgh media so he’s still ok in my book.
And come to think of it, Richie Walsh pays attention too, so we should appreciate him as well. But we should have stopped listening to him when he said Sean Miller was hired by Pitt and was in Pittsburgh.
Richie walsh is pro Pitt he ran track at Pitt for Gods sake. You jobbers are pathetic. Everyone has to pass a litmus test. Surprise douches Billy Hillgrove is a Duquesne grad. he must suck.
