EXCERPT:
Reluctantly, he admits to showing improvement in that time. “Mechanically, I think I've gotten better (and in) decision-making,” he said after the loss to Virginia Tech. That, along with a seasoned offensive line, has enabled Peterman to minimize sacks — only five in eight games. Pitt quarterbacks were sacked 29 times last season. OK, but what does it all mean? Actually, he would rather not analyze it just yet. “It's hard to think about those things after a loss,” he said. Pitt's shaky pass defense puts the pressure on Peterman to keep scoring at a high rate. But if he can show some leadership by occasionally throwing a shoulder into a cornerback, all the better. Just don't get hurt, his coach warned.
