Pitt - Va Tech Game Thread

[pierre93]

Izzy is a bad dude!!!!

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

That run right there is exactly why Izzy should be the regular back. With Davis that's a two yard loss. With Izzy it's a first down.

 

[BreakingPitt]

Pitt is a Football School.

 

[pierre93]

I'd love for them to take a shot. Let Kenny pad his stats and get over 30.

Agree

 

[kma0043]

If the running game is truly becoming competent then Pitt is becoming a dangerous team.

 

[docpanther26]

Too many penalties today.

 

[kma0043]

Enough pre snap penalties! The only big wart so far.

 

[rmf05]

Play action to Krull here.

 

[RaleighPittFan]

Burmeister is VPI’s leading rusher so far with 19 yards. He also only has 134 yards passing. The D is having a great game.

Even though they didn’t score that was a great possession.

Why not just kick the FG?
31-7 even sounds better

Exactly

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

Great Drive! Burn the clock.

 

[cruzer]

Exactly. Why not take the points? Short field goal. Makes no sense not to try the FG.

 

[President Stache]

Izzy is so clearly not only the best running back on our team, but he is legitimately a really good running back.

Love giving the ball to other guys occasionally... but that should be occasionally.

 

[pittdrum]

VT could have blocked it and something crazy could have happened. I like that they actually went for the end zone.

H2P

The kicker would have to kick 40 yards and on target. Better to go for it.

 

[rpastir]

H2P!

 

[Phillypanther2]

Either way. Great win!!

 

[revampedpanthers]

Am I crazy or are a lot our spots are being marked short?

Nope I noticed it all game Pitt was getting one yard less than they should have on a ton of plays.

 

[kma0043]

H2P. Nice win!

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

Excellent Win! Get to Heinz for the Clemson Game!

 

[Ski11585]

How nice that the studio guys can talk about KP having a so-so game when still throws for 209, 2 TDs, and a rushing score.

 

[mike 301]

H2P !!!!!!!

VT waived the white flag. They didn’t even use any TO’s. Going for it was the right call.

 

[pittiswhereiamfrom2]

Iowa has a terrible schedule

 

[kma0043]

North Carolina beating Miami is helpful too.

 

[President Stache]

Because after he got knocked back he re-established himself as a runner and tried to gain yards. If you want forward progress you can't start fighting for yards after you get knocked back.

Yeah that is what I said though

 

[President Stache]

Yeah I agree, plus we were against the wind. No reason getting the kicker less confidence going into next week

 

[docpanther26]

Solid win today, hail to Pitt!

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

No reason getting the kicker less confidence going into next week

That was my thought. Normally I'd have just kicked it, but if we kick it in that wind and he misses, which there would be a decent chance of, you might hurt the guy's confidence.

 

[thebadby2]

You can drive a tractor trailer through the holes this OL is creating right now.

O line had a very good day-that’s a good thing to see going into the next few weeks. .

 

[cashisking884]

"we didnt look great"

The score is 21-0, the yardage is 254-74, 3 sacks and an INT on D.

I wonder what looking great would be for you against a first place team in a very hostile environment

“first place team”

 

[President Stache]

“first place team”

You dont like factually accurate things?

 

[cashisking884]

You dont like factually accurate things?

I think saying VT is “first place” is like saying, “We just best an undefeated team” after a Week 1 game. Factually accurate, but still worth laughing at.

No it literally is not like that. The were I first and beat the preseason number one in UNC in their first game. I get your Pitt hate, but just pulling out anything to complain about wreaks of jealousy

Yeah, I’ve been saying that VT sucks since week 1 in anticipation of this game. That’s called playing the long con. You figured me out.

It’s just amazing that you don’t see how going from 1st to 5th in the division probably means 1st don’t mean much. But you don’t, so I’ll stop laughing at you over it because I’m starting to feel kind of bad about it now.
