Pitt/GaTech Game Thread

[rmf05]

can't believe I wasted over 3 hours of my day off on this. Wont make that mistake again

You're getting off easy. I'm serving a life sentence.

 

[runshadyrun]

fourth turnover, no points off them so far!

 

[TD_istheman]

Worse? When we go 2-10 or 3-9 I'll take my chances on somebody "worse".

Rent a coach got us at least 6 wins a year , 7 wins a few times , so how would we be worse off?

Truth Pitt is cheap and we care more about this embarrassing team then they do!

 

[panther.fan]

Gt has 4 turnovers and we are still down 11. Terrible.

 

[President Stache]

Sorry, Browne is better than DiNucci.

Sure, you can play DiNucci only because there is no future with Browne, he is a senior. But, dont pretend having 147 yards total offense is good.

This is the same OC we had all year... we should have more yards.

 

[thebadby2]

It's cliche to blame the OC...but if you are going to use DiNucci, the offense needed to be more motion based and misdirectional (not the opposite direction as it has been, LOL). They seem to be playing a straight drop back game with him. That's almost trying to fail.

So spot on it's not even funny. been muttering about that all day. You don;t run the same playbook for Nooch as for the Statue of Indecision.

We ran a couple read options with Browne, with disastrous results. Now we have a mobile QB in, and we don't even try it?

What about running Q out of the backfield a bit and run the read with him? Any OC worth his salt has to adapt his playcalling to his personnel and play to their friggin' strengths.

 

[TD_istheman]

Well, he was a quality control coach last year. But I'm sure Pitt Admin got a nice discount on him.

DING DING DING. Look who Pitt made PC hire as D Cord! Did PC even look at him for water boy when he got to Whisky, hell no, that is all you need to know

 

[rmf05]

Way to not score a safety for the other team O!

 

[runshadyrun]

another pass three yards short of the down marker!

 

[paulbl99]

Do we not have a play in the book to throw the ball beyong the line of gain?

 

[VolPanther]

Again throw a pass part the freaking sticks I blame the play calling on this loss

 

[PPanthers1]

It wasn't going to make it anyway. Get the freakin 1st, up the middle.

I was referring to the previous GT fumble, I just happen to post that a little bit before PITT fumbled. I guess it was a premonition

 

[UPitt '89]

Again... Ffrench was the primary receiver and was 2 yards short of sticks.

Thats on Watson, not QBs.

JTPF is wrong.

 

[President Stache]

where is blown redshirt AJ Davis?

I would love to see Davis in there right now

 

[BFo8]

where is blown redshirt AJ Davis?

He was entrusted enough on the critical 4th and 1 against YSU but apparently not enough to ever get a carry again this year.

 

[kma0043]

yeah bringing Browne in sure made a lot of sense. What the hell is this staff thinking?

 

[thebadby2]

Sorry, Browne is better than DiNucci.

This is the same OC we had all year... we should have more yards.

Browne is back in. You can now go back to saying he sucks, and that DiNucci is the better QB.

 

[pbrad]

Bring the "pure passer" in for a spark and run the ball.

 

[runshadyrun]

the offensive line is terrible, doesn't matter who's in the backfield!

 

[Gep Dawg]

The coaches will blame DiNucci and his decision making. It won't b their poor offensive play calling of course

 

[President Stache]

We should auction off the Position of Head Coach each week. Put the money towards building a 25k Seat Stadium and move to Division 2 .....

Why, I thought your stadium was 107k strong?? lol You want only 25K???

 

[UPitt '89]

Too much pressure on the defense, with the offense being so bad.

Theyre worn out

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

He's really not

 

[President Stache]

Browne is back in. You can now go back to saying he sucks, and that DiNucci is the better QB.

Ive never once said that, definitely thinking of someone else

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

Again... Ffrench was the primary receiver and was 2 yards short of sticks.

Thats on Watson, not QBs.

JTPF is wrong.

Actually he was at the sticks but the pass was so poorly thrown that he had to come back to try to catch it.

 

[President Stache]

He's really not

He really is. I think DiNucci is Trey Anderson

 

[TD_istheman]

Why, I thought your stadium was 107k strong?? lol You want only 25K???

Easier for them to spot young boys that way in a smaller stadium

 

[paulbl99]

The ACC must be in a tihther taking us over aN available WVU

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

Defense has played well enough to win.

Watson and the right side of the Oline should walk home from Atlanta.

The defense is no good.

Gt self sabotage with turnovers is the only reason it's not a blood bath

 

[VolPanther]

fourth turnover, no points off them so far!

Hell not even any positive yardage

 

[persp]

Another 3rd down play short of the sticks. I am 110% over Watson. Canada was a revelation, Watson is a plague.

Oh look, the offense killed the will of the defense.

 

[TD_istheman]

Hackett days are here again but no Alex Van Pelt in sight

 

[PPanthers1]

At least GT covered the spread

 

[President Stache]

The defense is no good.

Gt self sabotage with turnovers is the only reason it's not a blood bath

As bad as the defense is, the offense is worse.

Just a really bad year. I have no idea how we played so well against PSU

 

[mo cheeks]

We could get the first pick of the draft.

 

[kma0043]

There was a thread about the amount of yardage Pitt would give up and I guessed their FB would have 175-200 yards rushing. Pretty darn close guess.

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

Hell not even any positive yardage

You get four turnovers and can't even get one first down on the ensuing possessions. That's pathetic.

 

[BFo8]

150 yards and 7 first downs against what is a bad GT defense is embarrassing. This game was there for the taking with all the turnovers, no excuse for this performance today.

 

[persp]

Hackett days are here again but no Alex Van Pelt in sight

Nah, more like Cavanaugh. I'm having Sun Bowl flashbacks

 

[pittguy81]

Defense has played well enough to win.

Really? Defense sucks and can't get a stop. Offense could be stopped by blind and crippled senior citizens. Coaching is non-existent. Honestly this year's team is like a Hackett squad.

They can't tackle. They can't block. They don't execute on either side of the ball.

Watch Watson call jet sweeps to the short side and 1 yard passes to run out the clock.
