To win the Coastal now

[Sean Miller Fan]

Need to go 6-2 with a loss at Clemson

Need UNC to lose next 3 (@ FSU, VT, @ Miami)

Need Miami to lose 1 more game besides Pitt (FSU most likely)

Need VT to lose 1 more game besides Pitt

Best case now is win the next 3 and go into Miami with something to play for.

You could of just said win out and everyone else have at least 2 loses. Much simpler outline. Lol

Or just say we pissed it away today.

 

[PittPoker]

Win the Coastal? Your title should be called,

"Will Pitt finish with a winning record?"

 

[TD_istheman]

We will end up 6-6, and lucky to achieve that next year

 

[sherepower]

Did you watch the Virginia QB pass for over 400 yards against the team who beat the team we lost to last week? Or Virginia Tech the last 2 games? Miami looks VERY much improved with their new coach.

Looking like another year of being totally irrelevant in the college football landscape.

 

[TD_istheman]

We are 6-6, that's who we are, next hire , whenever that happens, has to be a proven recruiter, especially with QB's

We aren't going to beat Clemson so we need to win the rest of them and have UNC go 5-3. Need Miami and VT to lose to us and the Miami/VT winner to lose 1 more.

 

[TD_istheman]

We are winning 6 games, how come yinz won't accept that?????

 

[TD_istheman]

We are losing to Miami, Clemson, Tech, maybe Duke, maybe Marshall, hell, no shoe ins as I see it

Yea, I would say 5-7 is more realistic than 9-3. 6-6 and 8-4 probably have equal chances. 4-8 and 10-2 probably have equal chances. 7-5 is probably most likely.

-North Carolina isnt losing 3 ACC games so forget about it. We arent winning the Coastal. Georgia Tech and N.C. State are garbage and Virginia isnt any better. North Carolina skates to a 6-2 or better record now. The only way they dont is injuries.

 

[TD_istheman]

Well our Pitt motto..... WAIT TILL NEXT YEAR!

How confident are you?

 

[TD_istheman]

How confident are you?

I thought we were winning 9 when the season started, that won't happen. We could win 5, 6, 7, so I choose one in the middle. What do you think we win ?

Sorry, my money is on the next decade, best guess 2028.

I agree but they will lose in Tallahassee next week and they could lose to VT and Miami. Even if they go 1-1 there, there's a chance NCSU or Duke beats them rivalry games.

8 to 9.
Teams change week to week. They're a few plays from being 1-3 and a few plays from being 4-0. How you can be so confident about the next 8 is beyond me.

Our D is brutal, and our O only plays 3 quarters. That's just what I seen so far

Look at scoreboards across the country, every D is brutal. Narduzzi/Canada need to realize they are not Bill Cowher's Steelers where the can take the air out of the ball when they get a 10 point lead. Gotta stay creative and get 10 yard chunks...Conner right and Conner up the middle aren't gonna get it done in the 4th quarter.

I agree with that, but I knew before the game what would happen, and it did. Why do you think they will change now ?

 

[Pitt-fan-in-Charlotte]

Damn still a few that don't realize season over today - rest of season is now quest to win 6-7 and go to some shit bowl - team probably worse next year - at least peterman gone

Pitt football last bastion for qbs that can't run but have limited range also

I'm pretty sure 90% of the board had Pitt losing to unc and being 2-2 after 4 games. Why have the goalposts moved now? I'll go find the pre-season prediction thread.

Yes, please find it. I believe 7-5 was a low prediction. Most seemed to be 8 or 9 wins. Many said anything less than 8 wins would be dissapointing.

 

[TD_istheman]

I said 9, I was wrong , I didn't know the team was this bad on D, and the OC thinks game over after 3 Q, and they don't seem to want to change their philosophy, as it has cost us 2 games now.

 

[PittPoker]

With the exception of a few locals who choose play close to home, Pitt competes with MAC type schools for recruits. Until the image of the program changes (generally stimulated by great coaching or an accumulation of great regional talent), the team will be mediocre at best.

 

[wwbill4]

There needs to be some changes made. This team needs to be better as we move forward, than it has been the last 3/4 weeks, that what defines this team now, or its going to be the same story line every week. Quarterbacks are having a field day with the Pitt secondary. Keep in mind this is till a rookie head coach, he too needs to learn from his mistakes. These changes at this point are obvious, no more trying to hide poor play. Other teams have found the weakness and exploiting them. Maddox, Webb and Lewis should not start as a unit. The freshmen and red shirt freshmen linebackers should be given more time on the field. Its time for them to step up.

Thanks for coming up with these scenarios, but they are futile. The best Pitt has ever done was tie for a watered down crumbling BE. Thank God Pitt fb got in the ACC. It saved them. And Barnes is an idiot if he doesn't vote for 9 games to get built in clemson and fsu for interest.
