Dusty and Danny ESPN on SiriusXM this morning had on matt Berrie who did the game for ESPN.
He said the pregame and game atmosphere was one of the best he’s ever experienced. Students were lined up outside the game day production area at 2pm. He said it was like a powered keg all day pre game and during the game ready to explode….Dev’s pick 6…it exploded!
He couldn’t say enough about the experience. It was all unexpected and positive and thought it made Pitt look great. Dusty (on OKL guy) also agreed and was the one who brought it up as a huge talking point for week 1. He made a point ask about it before going to the week 2 games since he was so blown away by watching on TV.
Berrie thought It was 60/70 vs 40/30 Pitt in his estimate. He loved it. He even brought up the pitiful showing at UCLA in comparison.
I know we are all tired of the attendance thing. I know I am, but nationally I think it matters for some reason. Pitt was on display and they exceeded the expectations.
on to TENN!!
