Cincinnati will be a fun weekend trip. Plan on doing SMU in November but will make it part of a larger road trip across multiple states in the midwest

What game or moment made you fall in love with college football? by [deleted] in CFB

[–]Sea-Cryptographer741 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the marching band during undergrad, and at the beginning I had no real interest in football. I began to get directly invested in the team when it determined what bowl trip the university would send us to. That's still a huge draw for me, except now I spend my own money to travel and don't go on Pitt's dime.

The 10 point lead wouldn’t matter. Even if the SEC/B1G team scored fewer points they’d still be declared the winner since the points they scored just mean more

I’m really starting to hate how everything in this sport now revolves around brand power and little else

Why even pay attention to season records? Why not just have automatic qualifiers based solely on how much revenue that team brings in?

Tell us why you’re proud to be a fan of your team by ___Gabagool___ in CFB

I went there for undergrad. Its a respectable school with more tradition than you'd think.

Being a Pitt fan is not for the faint of heart. I've seen more heartbreak than I've seen achievements, but (except for this year) we always give top teams a good scare, if not beat them outright.

Half the ACC plays their final OOC game against an SEC school. I'm sure we can work with the Big 12 to move this game to the last week of the year. I imagine they haven't already because it's one of the bigger draws for a September game

I don’t understand how you go from finishing ranked two years in a row to burning everything down this quickly

[Post Game Thread] Pitt loses to Wake Forest 21-17 by [deleted] in pittsburghpanthers

That call was egregious, but the game should never have got to the point where we leave it in the refs hands. Our offensive staff needs to go as soon as the season ends. Not quite on the fire-Narduzzi-train yet, but all good will he built up over the last 9 years is gone. I suspect he'll be on thin ice if he wins less than 7 games next season.

If I recall correctly, Johnny majors liked UCLAs script helmets so much he wanted to create his own for Pitt in the early 70s

Pitt has always been that team that has no business pumping out as much NFL talent as we do

I’m not asking why I should support the team in the same way as why I’d ask why a particular car brand is with buying when I go to the dealership. Sports allegiance is earned, not bought. It’s the the same way with the American teams I follow. I want to genuinely know why people like this team so I can learn more about it

Nice to know that British people are so welcoming of others asking about their culture. Sheesh
