I actually want Pitt to win this one. Louisville plays no one this year and if they ended undefeated, they would get to the conference title and who knows.
Not trying to count any chickens before they hatch. But, if we finish with a loss, getting the ACC out of the picture is a good thing.

If Penn State beats OSU and Michigan, and goes undefeated, then they’ll be ranked above Florida State in the CFP poll.

No way Louisville goes undefeated this year regardless of what happens this game. They’re not that good.

Have you looked at their schedule?
They have Duke, VTech, Virginia, Miami, Kentucky. There are some decent teams there but they miss Florida state, UNC, and Clemson. I mean that’s a lot of meh too. But I dunno, trying to find meaning her guys, let me go with it.

Of course! But if they lose one?
A lot depends. It’s hard to say a 1-loss non-B1G champ PSU should get in over an undefeated major conference champion. That assumes FSU is undefeated. They should be.

What would sPitt football be without an ex-Penn Stater?

It should be interesting to see how they spin the narrative on this one.

And they could lose five of six in that group…they’re not good and their QB is bad.

I always feel like I’m in a 1970’s Time Machine when someone gives a hoot about Pitt. People..find something better to do.
Have to give them the 80's as well, still shocks me the apathy with that program.

Maybe taking Penn State cast-offs from the portal will become an annual event for the pitters. Penn State is loaded at nearly every position, recruiting looks great, Narduzzi can't recruit, and the players that sign with Penn State want to play in Pennsylvania. All this points to the pitters taking our rejects. This could become an annual affair for the pitters. pitt could evolve into a refuge for Penn State throw aways.

That will never happen. There’s only so many PSU players that will be able to process the DUZZ’s unique and sophisticated concepts. It’s so advanced that understanding the complexity is a graduate level course at MIT.

True. The last Penn State player who could have made the pitt team was John Urschel. The advanced math concepts that are needed to understand Narduzzi's play book require genius status in math.

I’m not convinced that Urschel had the academic bonafides Pitt requires for their scholar-athletes. After all, Urschel wasn’t awarded his doctorate until after he had used up his eligibility, the piker.
