Pitt best RB appears out, not warming up


Title: Re: Game Thread: Pitt 2022
Post by: murfvol on September 10, 2022, 09:17:30 EDT
That seems significant, especially since they didn't run well against WVU.

What channel is our game on?  The craptastic Penn State Marshall game still going on ABC...wait they just said ESPN News.  Alrighty then.

Stop me if you have heard that before


Title: Re: Game Thread: Pitt 2022
Post by: murfvol on September 10, 2022, 09:50:50 EDT
Attendance by Pitt looks quite low.

And Beasley still looks slow.


Title: Re: Game Thread: Pitt 2022
Post by: PirateVOL on September 10, 2022, 09:52:02 EDT
Got a bit lucky, held them to a FG (thanks to a flat drop)
got some pressure
secondary play poor on this drive

Hopefully Hendo has settled down


Title: Re: Game Thread: Pitt 2022
Post by: PirateVOL on September 10, 2022, 09:54:28 EDT
nope, he hasn't


Title: Re: Game Thread: Pitt 2022

The blitzed 2 and nobody picked either one up


Title: Re: Game Thread: Pitt 2022
Post by: murfvol on September 10, 2022, 09:59:40 EDT
No blitz pickup practice last week. It might behoove us to get a first down at some point.

At least we get the ball back quickly.

Tank again an issue
where was Trey?


Title: Re: Game Thread: Pitt 2022

Title: Re: Game Thread: Pitt 2022
Post by: murfvol on September 10, 2022, 10:09:17 EDT
At least we gained a few yards. Nothing is linear so hopefully Pitt has shot their wad.

It wasn't just that. It appeared he didn't give chase. Banks is playing hard.

Post by: murfvol on September 10, 2022, 10:58:12 EDT
I shall take a brief respite from bellyaching about our porous D to note Banks plays really stinking hard every play.

Now a 3 and out and another score for us is what the doctor orders.

They can’t stop us so far - we’ve stopped ourselves several times.

Post by: murfvol on September 10, 2022, 11:11:56 EDT
Perhaps on their side of the 50?!?!?

This idea intrigues me. We don't need a ton of stops. A few more should suffice.

GBO!

If there were 20 seconds I'd agree. I'll take the FG.

Title: Re: Game Thread: Pitt 2022
Post by: murfvol on September 10, 2022, 11:41:33 EDT
I'm shocked at their lack of fan support, but it mirrors their online presence. It's a beautiful day with a top 20 matchup, they're coming off a conference title, and attendance looks on TV to be 45,000 or so.

Oh well. Score 14 in the fourth and I think we'll be fine. But we shouldn't be in this position.

Baron slung him down, head impact to the ground.   Looked like possible concussion.

Nope. Regardless of what happens in the final 2:23, this feels like a loss. Just an absolute crapping of the bed.
