Pitt should win this game very easily. Virginia defensively tackles with their arms. They look like a high school defense as far as tackling. In other words, soft, so far. This is the first I have watched them so I hope that poorness continues.
Pitt can run through them and or pass through them.
Defensively, we need to remain disciplined. Their qb is good, but if we maintain discipline, we will be fine. They do not have a running back that scares me that I have seen, but we are only a little over a quarter in. The qb and big WR/TE a formiddable right now, but they are too reliant on that.

What is the rule on targeting in college football?
The 2019 NCAA Rule Book defines targeting as when a player “takes aim at an opponent for purposes of attacking with forcible contact that goes beyond making a legal tackle or legal block or playing the ball.”
LikeLike
That last one was bs…he tried to hit the ball.
LikeLike
Targeting elements include:
Rule 9-1-3:
(a) A player takes aim at an opponent for the purposes of attacking with forcible contact with the crown of the helmet.
(b) An indicator of targeting is present.
2. Rule 9-1-4:
(a) A defenseless opponent (Rule 2-27-14).
(b) A player takes aim at a defenseless opponent for the purposes of attacking with forcible contact to the head or neck area.
(c) An indicator of targeting is present.
you can argue all you want about the intent of attacking…however, the ref interpretted the fact the ball was jarred loose as an attack of a defenseless opponent.

we can blame refs on targeting, but remember they didnt call penalties on either targeting when it was live. For that reason alone, I can’t say the refs tried to hose us. They were called targeting (both correctly) after they were reviewed.
Now there were a couple of other calls that were questionable but nothing big in my opinion. Everything aligned. Picketts last td was an interception in waiting. He missed 86 running underneath.
bronco should have kicked fg on 4th down because he needed two scores. he needed to give his team a chance and he blew it!

still disagree but…
So what is targeting in college football?
Simply put, the targeting rule prohibits players from making forcible contact against an opponent with the crown of the helmet, which the NCAA defines as “the portion of the helmet above the level of the top of the facemask.” That means it has to be more than a legal tackle or block or playing the ball, and when in question, it’s ruled a foul.
Although these are not all the indicators of targeting, here are some defined by the NCAA rulebook:
Launch — a player leaving his feet to attack an opponent by an upward and forward thrust of the body to make forcible contact in the head or neck area
A crouch followed by an upward and forward thrust to attack with forcible contact at the head or neck area, even though one or both feet are still on the ground
.
Leading with helmet, shoulder, forearm, fist, hand or elbow to attack with forcible contact at the head or neck area
.
Lowering the head before attacking by initiating forcible contact with the crown of the helmet

The difference yesterday was that KP and Addison were slightly better than Marion and Wix.
Give Marion a ton of credit, he must have been hampered since he ran very little, usually a big part of his game. Their number 99 is a special player too.
Our D was also slightly better in that they did stop the run. Amazingly without Dennis.
Our special teams were special, Izzy’s spectacular run, and Addison’s big return.
So many big plays, none bigger than Addison’s final catch of that contested ball. Phenomenal!
