Was at game

some thoughts
Pitt simply has no defense and has to score on every possion to win
I still believe modifications need to be done on defense to protect their corners ( poor coaching decision/strategy )
They don't have enough talent on defense ,can't blame the coaches at this point in time they need time to recruit a few more classes
Fake punt after Miami drove the length of the field on first two possessions at midfield was a bad decision
My BIGGEST complaint is having the best return guy in college ball not allowed to return any kicks that crosses the goal line . He makes plays !
Said to my buddy when they punted with < 3 minutes left that it was just plain stupid . Just give up why don't ya !
Small crowd but loud
There were a few Panther fans at the game
Really nice stadium
Shame to waste a pretty strong offense

Actually, if the defense is that bad, what's the issue with the fake punt?
Does it matter then if Miami starts at the 45 or the 20?
Listening to the game, I thought it was a decent call. Just didn't work.

The offense was part of the problem today also. The two turnovers were in very costly positions.

They punted from around their 40 latter in the game which I thought would have been better . Giving them a short field isn't doing a struggling defense any favors . Your probably right though ,they can't stop anybody. The interception in the end zone shouldn't have been thrown . Defender looked like the receiver .

Should there have been a pass interference call on the fake punt?

With this D no reason to punt or kickoff ever

Yes, I was in the end zone with play coming towards me. Miami guy clearly had his hand on Pitt shoulder before ball.
