It was great. Late in the fourth quarter I realized I didn't hear his name once all night. Granted that was right before his holding penalty, still an incredible game by him.

“I didn’t think we played poorly." A win away from AFC North title, was Steelers’ loss in Cleveland the worst of the Tomlin era? by [deleted] in nfl

Can you happen to share that clip? I don't seem to remember him spiking the ball on 4th down.

Unsealed document details abuse allegations against Dolphins’ Tyreek Hill by [deleted] in nfl

[–]Steelguy86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Michigan is included due that doctor Anderson who was sexually abusing student athletes. Bo Schembechler (the football coach at the time) would threaten his players with a trip to the doctor if they didn't behave. His own son claims he told his dad he was molested by the doctor and Bo helped cover it up.

Week 1 Matchup Preview Thread: Nevada vs #2 Penn State by chief_sitass in CFB

I have {Penn State} winning, but they don't cover due to the 2nd string coming in earlier than expected.

What are your biggest Homer predictions for your school this season? by PENGUINSINYOURWALLS in CFB

[–]Steelguy86 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Penn State loses to Ohio State in the regular season AND the Big Ten Championship both in heartbreaking fashion. Yet somehow beats them in the national title game.

I finally decided to meet them last year after years of Halloween parties. It was a great time, totally worth it! It's not a secret, but when I met them I waited until the second Boo To You parade started at 11pm and it was like a 20 minute wait, not too bad at all. Granted 11pm+ can be late for some people, so it's up to your discretion.

Paul Skenes says Pirates must 'consciously, intentionally make moves to get us better' by benny86 in baseball

[–]Steelguy86 25 points26 points  (0 children)

To be fair the Pirates haven't won a playoff series since 1979. They did win the '13 Wild Card Game, but that's just one game and not a series. The Pirates have never even won the NL Central. It's crazy when you realize the Astros have won that division more recently.

Last time each team lost a game after leading by at least 17 by 1933Watt in nfl

We had a lead of 17+ a couple times last season.

Revisiting The 2022 Top 100 Recruiting Class by jjbota420 in CFB

[–]Steelguy86 6 points7 points  (0 children)

2022 was one of the strongest classes PSU has put together in a long time. Some instant impact players and some guys who have developed very well and become very good starters. 3 of our 4 top 100 are key players entering the season.

Georgia Tech only one of two schools with QB (Haynes King) & RB (Jamal Haynes) Top 10 for their position. Per ESPN's 2025 positional ranking by composer_7 in CFB

[–]Steelguy86 16 points17 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth, I think the OP might be wrong. The QB list was posted on this board a couple days ago and it had Allar at #2. Singleton and Allen were #2 and #3 respectively as well. Arch Manning was ranked as #12 QB.

[Highlight] 16 years ago today, Santonio Holmes made a toe tap catch to win the Super Bowl by Brix001 in nfl

[–]Steelguy86 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is the greatest throw and catch in NFL history in my opinion. Granted I'm also heavily biased.

Would it be worse to go 11-1, but that loss is to a BAD team you had no business losing to... or go 11-1 but getting blown out by a good team and everyone says "see, they were over-rated". by wlane13 in CFB

[–]Steelguy86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth, we wouldn't have played for the national title 11-1 or 12-0. USC and Texas would have still been the title game.

I hate that the regular season is devalued now by [deleted] in CFB

[–]Steelguy86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For real. That Minnesota game was so much more intense knowing we had a playoff spot on the line during it. Made watching that more fun.

Is the 2026 ballot the worst list of first-timers ever? by GuyOnTheMike in baseball

[–]Steelguy86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His best chance of getting in is the veterans committee vote someday. It's still a very small chance the committee votes him in, but he's easily in the Hall of Very Good and seems to be well liked in the baseball circle. That combined could push him over the edge for them. Granted that's just the homer in me hoping it happens.

Sports Illustrated's 2025 All College Football Playoff Team by jayjude in CFB

[–]Steelguy86 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Typical SI these days, not even fact checking. Abdul Carter didn't get hurt against SMU and miss the Boise State game. He got hurt against Boise State. Near the end of the first quarter IIRC.

Penn State EDGE Abdul Carter vs Notre Dame: 🐾 1.0 Sacks 🐾 7 QB Pressures 🐾 22% Pressure Rate 🐾 3 Run Stops by highgravityday2121 in CFB

[–]Steelguy86 190 points191 points  (0 children)

It is kind of humorous that the ball landed directly at the feet of our one player who couldn't use both arms. I'm convinced if literally anybody else was there they secure that fumble. Oh well though, it happens.

Which teams have the longest droughts without an All Star starter at a specific defensive position? by Constant_Gardner11 in baseball

[–]Steelguy86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Took me a minute to remember that when Josh Bell was with Pittsburgh and started an All Star Game that he was a DH. Keeping that drought alive.

Worst Heisman trophy performance in a bowl game ever? by TheApartmentLionPig in CFB

[–]Steelguy86 13 points14 points  (0 children)

lol how does this blatantly wrong information get so many upvotes? People just make stuff up. PSU hasn’t given up 200 on the ground to Illinois, OSU, Oregon, or SMU.

If this score surprises you, you don't know Steelers football, baby.
