Pitt vs. Cal. Official game thread

[pittiswhereiamfrom2]

Cal has too many penalties. They can’t make it such a big disparity

 

[pittbb80]

What kind of a make up call was that? Block below the knees - on defense? The CB was diving to tackle the ball carrier.

And he tackled him. Gifted Cal 3 points.

Even the PI was questionable. Contact was made after the ball went past the receiver

 

[pittmeister]

How many times has Holstein had the ball batted down today? Be careful!

He’s clearly aiming for their hands. Have to keep the game fair.

He should have thrown it to Bart immediately, was open, and he didnt and tried to run. saw that and tried to throw

 

[Teh Teh]

Our d is getting no real pressure. Their WRs have good hands, they are catching everything, even tightly contested. We need more points, we seem tentative on Offense today.

 

[Teh Teh]

This is the 8th commercial break of the first half btw... kinda crazy

 

[pittbb80]

D misses Biles explosiveness

 

[ECUPittfan]

Can we make a stop on 3rd and long ever?

 

[Teh Teh]

Why even blitz?? We arnt coming close to the QB

 

[pittiswhereiamfrom2]

Third and long is a mess for the Pitt D

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

3rd and 12. We're screwed.

 

[ECUPittfan]

Narduzzi managing clock for Cal? What was that?

 

[Teh Teh]

Can you imagine this board if Narduzzi let that much time come off the clock? Every fake account on here would suddenly appear and complain about Pitt.

May happen anyways if Cal scores here.

 

[Teh Teh]

Why even blitz?? We arnt coming close to the QB

Oh thats why

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

Narduzzi should have called TO after that 3rd down stop. More time = less incentive to attempt a long field goal.

 

[pittiswhereiamfrom2]

Wow. Great time for a sack

 

[pittiswhereiamfrom2]

Oh man

 

[cruzer]

Huge play and really dumb penalty by Cal.

 

[pittdrum]

They finally threw the flag on #66 for Cal. He has been a prick all game. Pretty stupid on his part.

H2P

 

[BreakingPitt]

Offense has been lackluster this game.

I think the flag was for wearing black face.

 

[Teh Teh]

Well, all in all, good first half.

We havent played at all well... yet we are winning.

I think Holstein catches fire in the second half. Needs to shake off the rust/dust/nerves and get going.

Lets GOOOO

 

[BreakingPitt]

Holstein 55 yards passing .
I guess that's a good sign but football is a weird game sometimes.

 

[cruzer]

We really need Holstein to step up his game in the second half.

 

[Sean Miller Fan]

Dont like the way this game is going. Just like Cincy and WVU games, the other team looks like the better team. Mendoza looks like Tom Brady out there but penalties and a 70 yard run have Pitt up. We need to play much better because that's not sustainable.

What a surprise. Some more negativity.

 

[BreakingPitt]

Total BS call.

 

[rpastir]

They stop a 3rd and long….and a penalty gets them!

 

[DruidTM]

Good review

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

Who was that roughing the passer call on?

 

[pittdrum]

Incomplete!!! Confirmed in stadium.

H2P

 

[Teh Teh]

ok, now play like youre confident for chrissakes

 

[Teh Teh]

Holstein just looks ill or something. Low energy if you will.

 

[BreakingPitt]

Football is played with confidence. And after each play is over ...its over. You go onto the next one . You don't think about the last play. Thats how you lose.

 

[HailtoPitt]

Holstein is playing like dogshit right now. Still better than the grown ass man, but not good.

 

[BreakingPitt]

What the hell was 8 doing? We should have had that .

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

Punt coverage team needed to be a little closer to the ball in that situation.

 

[pittbb80]

Eli’s off today. Hope he gets it together. He’s missing wide open guys over the middle. Williams was wide open on one of the throws to Johnson

 

[pittiswhereiamfrom2]

What the hell was 8 doing? We should have had that .

He finished with the play early. Getting a head start to the bench.
