Anyone who says that the Brawl is not one of the top 5 rivalry games in college football is dreaming in color!
Pitt vs. WVCC
- Thread starter pittiswhereiamfrom2
- Start date
What an unbelievable game. Great win for our Panthers today!
I turned the channel on the TV when WVU was winning 34-24 and started watching the game on my phone…. You’re welcome…
Holstein seems to be the real deal. If he had an OL and didn't have to run for his life every play, we wouldn't have to keep coming back in the 4th quarter just to get a close win.
I'm still not going to get too high with this team yet, merely because we really haven't played anyone yet. It was a great rivalry win against wvu, but face it....they're going to barely be at 0.500 for the season, if that. I'm surprised at how Pitt is playing and I think we have a chance to be above 0.500, if our lines improve. The ACC season will determine how far we go this year.

Common misconception. Seahawks fans were screaming this when the Steelers beat them in the Super Bowl, and they whined for years about the refs. No, touching the pylon on a catch means nothing. Touching it as a runner does...because the pylon is OVER the goal line, so a runner "breaks the plane" of the goal line when touching the ball to it. But a receiver has to get a foot in bounds -- on the ground. Touching the pylon only tells you where the foot was, but its not an extension of the ground.
I fixed it for you.......like you said what would happen with good pass protection?
Thats what i was thinking too…i guess it only when crossing over into the endzone?
WTF are you talking about? For years people have been using the term pitting in a negative way to describe us losing games we should never have lost. I was suggesting based on the last two games and this team maybe we can start using the term it in a positive way to describe us winning games that it looks like we’d never win.
lol…that’s usually my go to when I can’t watch, but can’t “not watch”. I was at the game so didn’t have to make that call tonight.
Can't wait to dig into this thread after the rest of the games end tonight. Should make for some great entertainment. 🍿
