Granted we have only played them twice. Would be nice to beat them for once. They have probably been practicing for us for a few weeks.
This game is their Super Bowl and the coach will be telling them everyone says at 7-5 they dont deserve to be in a championship game and they will use that for even extra emotional motivation. We will get 150% from them next week, their best game of the year.
Notre Dame beat them 19-14 on a TD in last 6 mins. Pitt was leading 14-6 with 17 mins in the game. This is going to be a real tough game
"IDIOT POSTER OF THE MONTH SO FAR...GWP-- You have won IPM Award for your failure to completely comprehend a clear post & then choose to attack someone who points out your ignorance. While you are not yet in the same No Class Catagory as deRoberts, ClemTiger117 & Tigerdug23, you are getting closer to the Sewer Dwellers." - coachmac
I agree with everything you said... until your last sentence.
I am not sure this will be a really tough game. Unless they totally overhaul their offense, they have been running straight at people all season. When they are stronger, they have success. When they are weaker, you get the Miami and Notre Dame point totals for their offense.
I think the point differential will be determined by how well we play on offense. I expect our defense to be fired up and bounce back in a strong way. I hope I'm right.
