See a lot people explaining what Pitt is and complaining about respect and national attention etc.
In the past 23 years from 2000-2023 , which is when I started becoming a full time Pitt fan we are 172-132. Winning only 6 bowl games in 23 years. Highest ranking to start was 9th in 2003 and we finished unranked. Highest we finished was #13 the year we won the ACC but lost our bowl. Only 1 straight forward conference title in 23 years.
We are mid level mediocre and inconsistent football team. And that's okay. I want more and hope many expect and want more as well. But numbers don't lie. We are who we are. At the end of the day I'll take that over some the programs any day.
It would be nice for a few year span to break this cycle. Most definitely. So when you want to compare us to others ... It's just not fair. We can usually sit here and say the ole Tomlin excuse... Well least we didn't have a losing season
