Bowl Ties: ACC vs Big 12

They also pick NCST vs ND in the Orange Bowl....

In regards to NCST, am I missing something???? What's the big hype about this year with NCST?

Do not underestimate our DL and OL.

Well they return a good QB and it looks like their defense will be pretty good. Plus with 9 wins in 3 of the last 5 seasons they’ve been a fairly consistent program, so I don’t think it’s that much of a stretch. Also like Pitt they beat Clemson unlike Wake last season.

Pitt not being ranked in the preseason is dumb and I’d like to have higher aspirations than the season ending with Duzz getting a Gatorade shower with Cheez-It’s, but that’s not too bad of a bowl game. Probably would mean they won about 9 games.

Dont get all worked up about preseason hype. Good or Bad. They are almost always completely wrong.

So true. Half of these teams won’t even be in the Top 25 at seasons end.

WTF does "The sword has been cast" mean? I don't think that's a real saying.

This is about as accurate as a Sean Miller Fan prediction…

 

[Gunga_Galunga]

How can you have a made up, worthless, preseason poll without PSU, Texas, Florida, and USC. It doesn't matter how bad they've been, they are entitled to be in the worthless preseason poll.

Well sh*t, then throw in WVU too. I hear they have a lot of $$$$ to spend.

Losing Addison is a massive blow. This cannot be understated. His production and impact could be the difference between 10-2 and 7-5

How did you calculate this? What is your scientific formula?

 

[H2P-2007]

I hope this is bulletin board material - I think the "we don't get any respect" card is overplayed in sports, but unfortunately for Pitt it is true year after year

I think you've suffered a massive blow to the head....

almost? 18% hit rate on top 25 preseason vs post season poll.
its a beauty pageant

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

You can't have a preseason poll without Nebraska, which has averaged 4.85 wins per season over the last seven years, being included. This is simply unaccepted; please take it back and resubmit an updated version.

They have us playing a GARBAGE program like Texas? Where you are super rich, own your own TV Network and go 5-7 every year

 

[Pitt79]

They probably purposely leave out programs that have a chance to be good, but that the TV Networks want to keep out of the playoffs based on the perceived inferior, non blue blood brand, so that they will have a huge mountain to claim and be impossibly behind, even if they go 12-1 or something like that. They desperately want certain schools to get in, like Texas, so they rank them as they go on to another 5-7 season.

Ohhhhh ok that makes more sense, I thought he was saying that "in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man gets the worm"

 

[FireballZ]

Here you go again.

Yep. Another ridiculous, overstated post. It's clearly more like 12-0 to 6-6.

 

[recruitsreadtheseboards]

So much of these rankings (unless you are a blueblood) are QB returnee dependent.

@Sean Miller Fan doesn't follow college football. Just ask him.

Going into 2021 the WR room had caught 179 passes for 2100 yards and 8 TDs the previous season. No one complained about the WR production in 2021.

Going into 2022 the WR room had caught 150 passes for 2142 yards and 18 TDs the previous season.

Hopefully Che comes in and plays a role like Calvin Austin did for Memphis.

 

[9nationalchampionships]

Safe to say this is posted in the weight room ..... Dangerfield syndrome

 

[Dointhatrag]

It does put Pitt in a hole because they have to wait for 20 + teams to lose ahead on them. They have two marquee games to start but I bet if they win it only gets them to 15 at best.

 

[pittdan77]

When was the last time anyone even picked the coastal correctly? Also, preseason coach's poll was definitely voted on by interns who were ordered to hype their school's opponents.

This is precisely the reason these matter. It may be the only legit reason, but it’s a pretty significant one.

Exactly. You get it. For the record they did not have Pitt in their preseason top 25 last year and we ripped it.
