The Jackie Sherril Classic - either A&M or Miss State. Castrate a bull pre-game on the 50 yard line. Bring on the cowbells!! Will always remember Larry torching the A&M defensive backs!
Now that the Pitt-Tennessee series has ended, what SEC team would you like to see Pitt schedule?
- Thread starter cbpitt2
- Start date
Vanderbilt - Nashville is a great place to hang aroundI'd pick South Carolina or LSU. Two nice road trips out of that.
Pitt Football vs. the SEC
No Pitt fan can state that the recent home-and-home series with the Tennessee Volunteers called the Johnny Majors Classic was anything but a success. Each team won on the road when they clearly had…johnbaranowski.wordpress.com
No way. Gatlingburg/Pigeon Forge is a really cool area.
I mean, it's definitely not a "nightlife" kind of place; it's more family-oriented. But between the two strips and the Smoky Mountains, it's pretty cool in my opinion.
I probably wouldn't go there as a vacation destination, but as a side trip during a Pitt road trip wouldn't be bad
Haha, fair enough. I stayed there for the Pitt game and thought it had a great vibe. Like the boardwalk without the beach. And that's without even getting to explore the Smoky Mountains or Pigeon Forge (we drove through there on our way to the stadium the next day). I'd have definitely booked a few days down there had I known more about what it was all about. Plus I think it's only like an hour from Asheville, which seems like it could make for a cool trip. I didn't think the people in the tourist area were too bad on that late summer Friday (i.e. probably a lot of out-of-towners in), but having stopped for gas off the beaten path on the way in, I could see what you mean. There was a family there that made Fayette County look like a black tie affair. I imagine they trickle into the tourist sections throughout the year.
All in all, though, my memories of it are very fond.
I’ve been to Baton Rouge. A day is more than enough.
New Orleans would be a nice place to visit, but three days there was enough for me.
Baton Rouge is dump. Great game day atmosphere but it a lot like Flint outside of campus.

It's possible. They played USF in Tampa. The Gators played at Syracuse during the Spurrier era.
They haven't played outdoors in the north in like 50 years or something insane. Even the Cuse game was 23 years ago.
With the Florida State game built in for Florida too, it just seems unlikely. I mean look at their 2025 schedule, all in State:
2025
- 09/06 - USF
- 09/20 - at Miami (FL)
- 10/11 - Florida A&M
- 11/29 - Florida State
This got me interested in looking. Pretty crazy.
@ Syracuse in 1991
@ Rutgers in 1986
@ Northwestern in 1965
I stopped at WW2
Very interesting.
It doesn't seem as if it's hurting them; so, why would they if they don't have to?
I know you want a balanced schedule of course but people forget we beat Tennessee or UCF (when they were riding a 27 game regular season winning streak) but have lost to Ohio, Western Michigan, Youngstown State, Akron.
