Chubb from UGa rushed for 229 on 33 carries.

Illinois back rushed for 115 on only 15 carries

James Madison had a 2 back platoon rush for 188 on 33 carries

If our OL is as good as advertised, we should ground and pound our way to TDs.

Last year we had a poor game plan against them as we came out throwing.
Need to run the ball and keep the clock moving.
 
Correct if I'm wrong, but didn't UNC have a lot of big wide outs last year?

Yes, not a good matchup. Not as harrowing as Ok St.though this year imo.
 
We should be able to chew up yards! Question is will the defense stop them?


THIS! But if the offense scores 42 points and the defense gives up 45 points, I'm sure the Yinzers will blame Canada and Peterman.
 
For all the complaints that the O-Line isn't playing as advertised etc., Pitt has had 2 games in a row against Power 5 teams with over 250 yards on the ground and over 30 pts in each game. The sky isn't falling. That begin said, UNC game is the most important game of the year so far, more so than the PSU game even.
 
our pass defense is a major problem. when you have two bad corners, narduzzi's scheme to put his corners on a island is a bad idea.

watching a lot of college football games, freshman are starting all over the place at other schools. QB's, OL, many positions. but not with us.
