Let’s hear it – keep us rolling in the aisles with the great observations you guys make during the game.  Game starts at 12:30 – I’m posting this early since I’m going to get onto the road at 6:30 am as I’m driving down to Charlottesville for the match.

Our predictions were made in yesterday’s article and it looks like Pitt fans overwhelmingly feel that Pitt staff and the players (and fans of course) will be a happy bunch around 4:00.  I feel that way also and with no second guessing upon wakening as I usually have.

It will be partly sunny with a high of 70° and just about no chance of rain.  With the winds at 6 mph both passing games should have no hindrances, except what the opposition puts up.

I’ll not be on this gameday thread much – maybe a bit from my phone – but we’ll have our regular POV Sunday Morning podcast tomorrow to talk about the win.

Here are the latest odds:

 

Let’s go get them and bring home a 5-2 record.

 

 

“With craziness, you can’t predict it. There’s very little defense you can have on craziness.” – That’s a quote from Bryan Cranston, our favorite chemistry teacher. 

That sentiment holds true for what we have seen from Pitt’s defense so far this season.  While during the off-season we fans felt that the interior of our defensive line was going to be a real problem – just the opposite happened.

Then we figured that our DBs, who returned almost en mass losing just L. Pitts, were coming back strong with that year of starting experience under their belts and would better what we did in defending the pass in 2015.  Well, that sure didn’t happen either.

So predictions are tricky things.  Sometimes, especially with Pitt football I think, the heart overrules the mind – that’s when we start predicting Pitt to upset a better team.  Although that hasn’t happened in the last two years yet we keep hoping it will so we pick Pitt in those games.
