(I’m posting this earlier as I’ll be tied up all day tomorrow)
The team was back at practice on Sunday but before we get too deep into what might happen this Saturday – we’ll do that in detail later this week – here is Narduzzi’s presser after the Big Win.
Well, I’m not the only ‘realist’ that writes on Pitt football – here is Jerry DiPaola’s reminder that we’ve blown games after big wins before.
Can’t beat this feeling… Honest to God. Even with all the pragmatism I try to maintain on here and with all the neutral feelings I try to inject into my score predictions, my Pitt roots, all 110 years of them, show through both internally and externally.
This 42-39 win over Penn State is one for the fans – we guys and gals who have stood by and watched the vagaries of the Fates spin the Pitt football program around and blow it down Forbes Avenue like a tumbleweed. That might still happen for time to time but it will be minor slings and arrows – not the heart-numbing drama we went through in the recent past. I’ve a feeling we’ve left that behind.
Pitt deserved this win and the Administration, Athletic Dept and the coaches and players gave it to us. A true team effort in many ways and not only on the field of play. I’m not forgetting the fan’s part in the win either – Saturday’s was the most excited and loud Pitt crowd I have ever heard – and I’ll remind you I was at Pitt during our championship run.
Here – watch some again:
For the love of football
