Give Slovis time and he will hurt you. Keep the pressure on all game next week against Duke.

Another data point showing prevent defense rarely works the way you want it to.

I’m gettin the weed out. Upvote for CBK

 

[Beej1953]

Key is making me hope he is the solution.

CBK showing the difference between a leader and a cheerleader.

Can someone gif that play where all 5 OL mauled the entire Pitt defense for 10 yards?

Go Tech.

That’s was the play of the game in my opinion. That is where we transformed from ”wanting” to win to “doing the winning”. It was a beautiful team play.

Charlie Thomas took over

Overall take:

Pitt committed a lot of penalties tonight and dropped a lot of balls (thrown by both their QB and our own). Brent Key didn't make those mistakes happen.

What he did do, and the Sims interview supports this, is he focused this week like a laser beam on eliminating our own mistakes. He seems to know it wasn't just the losses, but the bad sloppy football that got Collins canned. So he focused on details this week, and we came out and played with no false starts, no delays of game, no showboating, no badly timed penalties, perfect special teams, and only one substitution/timeout gaffe. By cleaning all that up, he put us in a position to capitalize when Pitt $%&#ed up, and we capitalized.

For that, I give him much credit. Now do the offensive line. There were a couple flashes of brilliance there in the run game tonight, but a lot to criticize as well, and pass protection remains raw sewage with a pretty good Dook team coming up next.

..is there evidence that Prevent ever works the way anyone wants it to?

You guys are ridiculous. You’re on the 1 yard line. Up by 12. With like 4:00 left. There is almost no risk to go for it. Not to mention our ST woes. The play call was not ideal IMO. But come on.

Wrong.witha15 point lead, you add another item that Pitt has to accomplish to beat us. Adding up odds makes it tougher for Pitt to really pull off the comeback.

What are the odds of their comeback if it’s 26-7? You act as if it’s a foregone conclusion you don’t make that yard or it’s worse than like 65-35. The odds of a comeback from 12 down or 15 down are almost identical and pretty bad. The odds of a comeback from 19 down are very very almost zero bad. You make a 2 possession game a 2 possession game with a FG. You make a 2 possession game a 3 possession game with a 1 yard TD.

We had a ton more penalties under a typical Collins game.. penalties have a lot to do with coaching and practice imo

Congratulations... you can predict how bad Geoff Collins sucks, along with the rest of the western world.

Your skills are no longer required.

Gotdamn, they done jacked up room rates for next weekend.
Hell, drive up, go to game, stop by the Cheetah to see some friends, drive home.
Just like the old days. ....

(Did that a lot in my 30s. And into my 40s.
Now?
Oy.)

And who'd ever think before the season that Duke-Tech might be a consequential game in the ACC Coastal?

Somewhere in the back and bottom underside of the minds of everyone who has watched ACC football this century, we knew that it may very well come to this.

Cheers. Hopefully this thread is a little more dead next week as we fill BDS.

FINAL: Georgia Tech 26, #24 Pittsburgh 21
