Pitt vs ND game thread

[Joe the Panther Fan]

Was there any doubt when Notre Dame didn't send the field goal team out there on 4th down that Pitt was going to call a defensive time out?

Hey! That time it worked!

 

[pittiswhereiamfrom2]

ND doesn’t need to worry about giving the ball back to Pitt

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

Get any sort of pressure on Hartman and he folds like a cheap suit.

 

[thebadby2]

There were 2 that weren’t called on that play.

There are probably 6 holds and/or illegal use of hands that aren’t called on every offensive play by every team at every level of football in every game ever played. Only the most blatant ones are called, and even then not routinely or consistently.

None. It's a scared habit whereby he is begging them to reconsider.

I see Chris Collingsworth has promoted his son to ND play by play guy.

If ever there was a dude whose only qualification for the Job is his daddy this clown is he. He’s beyond bad

 

[pittiswhereiamfrom2]

Merry Christmas… buy a bunch of stuff.

It's more of an inconvenience than anything.

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

What's Yarnell up to this week?

 

[pittiswhereiamfrom2]

Bud Means saved himself on that one

 

[pittiswhereiamfrom2]

Means can’t stand there?

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

That was a dumb call and dumb penalty to take. The play takes too long.

 

[pittbb80]

Such a weak ass call

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

Is Veilleux paying any attention to where he's throwing footballs? Sorry... he's not good. Defense about to give up.

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

That was a dumb call and dumb penalty to take. Takes too long.

it was a pretty obvious call, and a really dumb play by the Bubster.

 

[cruzer]

maybe that's our alternative to punting.

He just lofted it up

 

[pittbb80]

Vayer looks like he’s overwhelmed by the moment. Looks awful

 

[cruzer]

Yarnell time.

 

[pittiswhereiamfrom2]

maybe that's our alternative to punting.

That might just be a better idea

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

It was like a 23 yard net punt, which for us isn't too bad!

 

[pittiswhereiamfrom2]

Vayer looks like he’s overwhelmed by the moment. Looks awful

Surely that is not how to say that name. Ridiculous

 

[HailtoPitt]

Probably better to have that int then a 20 yard punt.

 

[President Stache]

Same as his cohost.

It is embarrass for Notre Dame to have these 2 announcers and be sponsored by Walmart.

By the way, this is insane every single change of possession is a commercial. It is nearly unwatchable

 

[sonofabit]

I know Duzz. Get ready for a ground assault. Well you know what I mean.

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

2 holding calls on the same play in the exact area the play is happening. There needs to be a call. Not even a debate.

 

[briano25]

Is bub even trying????? And why is every single play to the short side? Every single play is into the boundary. It makes no sense to throw into double coverage into the boundary with a wr that doesn't want to fight for it

 

[HailToPitt725]

Our football players are not good at tackling their football players.

 

[pittbb80]

Ole. Missed tackes. This has to be the worst tackling defense in Duzz tenure

 

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

He just lofted it up

He's making bad passes to guys who are not open to begin with. It's an odd way to play the position; that's for sure. His mind is made up before the snap 90% of the time. That worked one game... but welcome to reality.

 

[President Stache]

excellent point

Has Collingsworth's son ever called games before? Let alone be the play by play guy for ND on NBC.

 

[pittbb80]

Bub quit on that ball

 

[PAbornandbred]

D needs to step up big here!!!

 

[briano25]

Cignetti and Canada are the same. Why not throw slants and crosses? Everything is an out with no chance to advance the ball or a go into double coverage

 

[pittiswhereiamfrom2]

Not even a chance for missed tackles on that

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

Not even a chance for missed tackles on that

That camera view from behind the play gave a perfect view of a couple Pitt defenders running themselves right out of the play.

We do that way too often on defense this year.

Garrett is giving good color analysis. He may not be Mr Personality but knows what he’s talking about when he’s diagnosing and explaining stuff. That breakdown of CV’s pick was good stuff and spot on.

Weird how

 

[HailtoPitt]

Poutine for Ottawa?

 

[cruzer]

What a mess.
