Huh, talking with Ike this morning I had to ask him who we are playing tomorrow…that’s how disengaged I’ve become. But – you guys sure aren’t so lets hear what you think will happen tomorrow…
I’ve not really studied VT this season but it looks like we’ll be able to run against them. So, if that happens I think we have a shot to win this home game. I hope the weather is good and have a great time tailgating and watching the game… And I’ll post up a Game Day Thread up tomorrow.
BTW good news on the blog ownership front. I will let you know the details when things firm up.
Have fun and bring us a win… Reed
Editor’s Notes: In three years the POV has had to date:
- 743 articles published or an article every 1.66 days. Reed wrote 714 of those and 29 were reader’s submissions – thank you!
-
93,000+ comments or at least 125 per article on average.
-
The POV has had 1,863,089 views with 186,578 individual repeated returning viewers.
-
We have 1,195 dedicated “Followers” which means 1,195 readers signed up to get the new articles emailed to them every time one posts.
-
The POV is read in 107 different countries worldwide.
-
From those 106 countries other than the U.S. we have received 688,944 views.
-
I personally have received over 2,500 emails from readers/commenters (some from pretty surprising big names in Pitt’s football history…).
So you can see that tailgates, golf outings and other extraneous events aside the POV has made a huge impact in the Pitt football media and I believe a lot of reader’s lives. As it looks now that will continue for at least one year after I pass it on to a new owner.
Something to understand though is that the blog will change to suit the different points of view the new owner has. That is probably going to be a good thing as the more jaded the less I’ve cared for, or written about, Pitt football…and it showed I believe.
Last year, VT held Pitt to 55 yards rushing. I think Pitt must and will improve on that stat since it is an essential element for a Pitt win.
But, VT has averaged > 30 points on offense and the Pitt defense has been pretty inconsistent.

I’ve watched some of VT this year as they have repeatedly failed me at the window. Honestly, this team stinks. The defense was already very bad due to graduation and NFL draft, but they have been hit with the injury bug. Pitt SHOULD be able to line up and run the ball down their throats much like GT and BC did to them. In a normal world, Pitt wins this game and covers the 2.5 spread with ease.
However, I have 30 years of data that tells me just when you think Pitt has turned the corner, SOP shows up. I would not be surprised if Pitt loses this kind of game and everybody will be talking in January about how things would have been so different if Pitt just beat UNC and VT.

Pitt wins if they can run the ball, sustain drives, win the field position and turnover battle, and if the D bends but doesnt break
VT will stack the box to stop the run and force Kenny to beat them. 3rd and short will be key for Pitt to win. VT is always good at special teams. And the VT D is a better match-up (personnel and scheme) than Virginia’s so Pitt may be hard pressed to move the ball consistently.
Some deep balls to stretch the D by Kenny will be important.
Keeping the game close is also critical for Pitt since they will have a hard time coming back if down by more than 14 points.
I expect a Pitt win with a last second field goal. Pitt has Techs number historically. SOT.

I predict Pitt wins if we can score more than Virginia Tech… That bit of prognostication aside, I somehow feel like a win is unlikely, just because… I mean, three good wins IN A ROW? Makes me think the odds are simply against it. But if we are going to get this big win, I think we’re going to need to pull off some surprises offensively, because you know a guy like Bud Foster, with a big game on the line and a lot of experience playing us, is going make it very difficult for us to run, and PN knows that going into the game, so what’s he/Watson got to keep them off balance? Time will tell, should be a good one. One other concern I have, IF in fact this turns into a close game dependent on field position, is our punter, who could wind up indirectly costing us this one.

With Pitt, I have learned, as many have, to develop a defense-mechanism where I typically anticipate them losing so that somehow I can better tolerate the losses and somehow they don’t hurt as badly.
With that said, my wild guess for tomorrow’s final score — in a game that’s tight all the way — is:
VT 20
Pitt. 23

This game is such a toss up as everyone seems to be either predicting wins the caveat SOP shows up or projecting losses because of SOP. Sadly, I’m right there with everyone else. I could see a game like Duke on this one. So I’m trying to make a goal for myself:
Don’t get discouraged at the first sign of weakness. Many times during Duke I saw the defense give up huge chunks of yards and wanted to leave. I made myself stay and see what the Offense did and they kept scoring. I think the first half is tight and low scoring. I see the 2nd half with some fire in the eyes of the seniors.

With this Pitt football team it’s almost impossible to figure out what team is going to show up any given week.

Demon 4: Pitt has put together a two game winning streak and has won three of the last four.

Interesting game tonight at The Pete. Not quite as big a crowd as Tuesday, but still decent all things considered.
The Zoo needs some practice. Missed last season myself – seems like the Zoo is a bit lost and not as cohesive and loud as in the past – no direction. Maybe Coach C can hold a little seminar one night and give them a few pointers…;)
Very hard to really get a feel for the team tonight – unlike Tuesday HCC was liberal in the substitution pattern. He played several different combo’s of players – not all seemed to click. The starting unit seemed to play together, and Wilson-Frame was a great addition, he seemed to ignite the outside shooting and the other guards took up the challenge. Haven’t seen the numbers yet but seemed like a good effort from the 3 line.
Defense was again outstanding, and Pitt dominated on the boards for a good part of the game – hustle and quickness and a good defensive philosophy seem to be working. Their ‘trey’ defense was awesome early on.
Lots of nice individual efforts tonight, #11 D”Nir showed the crowd some mustard.
#15 Kene was again the energizer bunnny, it was nice to see him get the start after last game’s outstanding effort.
Wilson-Frame looked confident out there and was IMHO the player of the game. Several steals and heads up shot selection on offense.
Coach Capel seemed in control the entire game – no misguided ‘T’ tonight.
Nice win – this team is going to run, run, run when they can and create opportunities to run even when they can’t and play some high pressure man all over the court. Don’t get me wrong – playing against a P-5 caliber opponent and they are going to be in a bit of trouble – but good progress in the first two games against lesser opponents gives me a bit of optimism; something lacking in The Pete the last few seasons.
Going to bed now to get some sleep for the Big Pitt Victory tomorrow – see you all at the Tailgate.

Neither team has a good D – both above 90 in the rankings.
If the weather was warmer, this would be a recipe ffor a high scoring game. Instead, cold and breezy means Pitt needs to punch the Hokies in the fface over and over again. They need to wear their D out with smash mouth ffootball and let the better conditioned Panthers prevail.
