Um, they were in position to tie or go ahead with less than 2 minutes to go. Regardless of the reason for that, it happened. How can you say that Pitt demolished them? Why the need to exaggerate?
Personally... it was really a demolition, I mean, this was like the Pitt-ND game last year. ND controlled the game the whole way, ND was up 28-10 and had a yards advantage at that time of 320 to 138. We came back because of opening up trying to catch up and end up losing by 10 and only had like 30 some yards less than them. Does that mean we played as well as they did??? No... it means they went conservative and won the game. Coaches dont give a rats butt if they win the game by 60 or 6... if you are up big, they tend to want to run clock, limit risk of injury and hope to get the W as quick as possible. Again, after that game all the negative ninnies were saying we were blown out on national TV... bla bla bla.
It isnt an exaggeration to say we demolished Penn State. We whipped them from the opening whistle and controlled the game. We came out totally prepared and executed the game plan on both sides of the ball beautifully. The final score was not indicative of the game.
