***Pitt @ Va Tech Game Thread***

You take any conference road win and be happy with it. Now, what, one game (Eastern Kentucky) over the next two weeks? Alot of time to get things right and relax and rest.

Avoiding the bad loss by any means was a very important thing

How this game unfolded won’t matter one bit in March. It would have mattered a ton if we lost.

H2DamnP

I mean - that committee doesn’t watch ball anyway. For all they know we were up 11 and gave up a couple garbage time 3’s. 😆

Nice win—most on this board do no not understand that we were underdogs!

We were 8.5 points favorites and VT covered.

The offense has been Lowe dribbling, dribbling, dribbling.
Fortunately he has made some touch shots. Still no other offense.

That's a concern. If Lowe isn't giving us 150%, we lose to most teams because no one else seems to want to step up.

Very long road trip , in fairness

They kept saying “road trip”, but unlike baseball, doubt the team didn’t come home for 3.5 weeks.

But on and off of planes and that much travel has an impact. Hopefully makes us more battle tested

Torvik had it at 6. VT still covered, but not an unexpected result.

Doesn’t matter
Road conference win in a place we haven’t won in over 20 yearav

Especially with a holiday -
Hard to maintain routine and intensity
Esp with 3 true P5 road games in a row .

Hey, those 2002-2010 teams had alot of ugly road wins.

They don’t ask how , they ask how many !
I’ll take some rock fight wins anytime

 

[DruidTM]

if you’re a VT fan it’s got the feel that Pitt toyed with em winning in the end

Heh yeah that’s the ticket

But I think we can all agree that just about any other opponent, and this performance would have led to another L.

Sorry-I’m sure that I saw it at about 3 dog, but when I looked later we were favored. Needless, nice win

So long it it didn’t yesterday is the only thing that matters to me
