[9nationalchampionships]

5.5

 

[Millerton]

UNDER

 

[Tony Zimmermans Dennys Adversary]

He’s mobile. Under.

 

[BLH2P]

He’s mobile. Under.

Uh so was Cunningham

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

Under - I’ll say 4

 

[tetonpanther]

A young big ben tough to take down

 

[chirurgo]

Under. 2. Look for a hefty dose of 5 yard outs, slants and TE crossing routes.

 

[9nationalchampionships]

Ben was so much better than Jerk in college. He will be attacked on every play....we shall see

A young big ben tough to take down

 

[Phillypanther2]

Under.
Did you watch last weeks game?

 

[9nationalchampionships]

I will take the over based on our DL, blitzing packages and BC's bad WRs getting open.

No blitzes last week, I don't expect any from Narduzzi this week.

 

[wicker]

Nice goin', fellas. The correct answer is under because after the first one he will crawl back to his momma. If he isn't split in half

 

[Pittisit4me]

Way under! BC has a good line.

 

[Bethlehemjohn]

Under.

 

[sherepower]

BC has one of the top offensive lines in the country. Every starter is back from last year. When they ran the ball down our throats

 

[HailtoPitt]

Who.cares

Knowing Pitt they will set a sack record and lose.

 

[kma0043]

People act like Jurkovic is a Heisman lock. It’s fn BC. Pitt has more talent than them and should win. If they don’t it’s an upset and a mega concern.

 

[Panther_in_Kentucky]

Way under! BC has a good line.

This. Maybe zero.

You’d think a young Big Ben would play ahead of Ian Book st ND.

 

[IntrospectiveYinzer]

NC State laid the map on how to slow down the pass rush. I’d say under as well

 

[Slick Manager of Champs]

bets on who gets into a state of Jurkovec rapture first, titleman or Colin Dunlap?

 

[Slick Manager of Champs]

This. Maybe zero.

bet me?

 

[Mikefln]

I will take the over based on our DL, blitzing packages and BC's bad WRs getting open.

BC may have one of the best TEs in the country.

 

[gary2]

More generally about beating BC:

BC is always very physical. Pitt has to match their physicality.

Most teams have more speed than BC. Pitt needs to win with speed.

I would be doing a lot of max protect (do we ever do that?) and throw deep.

 

[billstadt]

I predict that he has no sack.

 

[PharMorNightStocker]

I would say the o/u is 2.5. Even then I might take the under. He's tough to bring down. I saw him (stupidly) throw a ball backwards last week to avoid a sack.

Luckily, it'll just be about scoring more points, and sacks won't matter (just as they didn't last year, when we lead the nation in them but were still 4-5 against the P5).

You would think a big ben would not end up at a jobber Mac school ! Ouchtouche

still enough time to call the morning show and gush over Phil with colin.

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

I would say the o/u is 2.5. Even then I might take the under. He's tough to bring down. I saw him (stupidly) throw a ball backwards last week to avoid a sack.

He's been sacked 11 times this year, including 6 in the Duke game, so I'm not so sure he's all that tough to bring down.

Having said that, the 5.5 posited in the original post is too high. I would be great if we would get him that many times, but that seems pretty unlikely.
