When I watch Dion Lewis play I feel like I am watching Mike Hart all over again. Kid is a stud.

Matthean · 12-05-2009, 12:25 PM

24-10. Have to admit this is rather stacked against Cincinnati. Passing heavy team going against a running team in the snow, on the road, against an aggressive D, playing against a team coming off a tough loss, and Kelly doing nothing to dispel the rumors that he would go to ND, which is a huge mental hurdle in of itself. If Cincinnati wasn't so good offensively, I would fear this becoming ugly, but I'm not really seeing proof showing Cincinnati mentally showed up for this game either.

SirFozzie · 12-05-2009, 12:27 PM

Too bad ... I liked the story about Cincy.. looks like they're going to be clobbered by Pitt.

BTW, would it have been smarter for the Punter to have just run back through the end zone for a safety, rather then give Pitt possession at the Cincy 5? (he picked it up at the 1-2 yard line)

DeToxRox · 12-05-2009, 12:34 PM

Huge KR TD by Mardy Gilyard to keep Cinncy in this for now.

In theory yes. But I doubt if placed in that situation you'd be thinking clearly enough to do it.

Probably not in my case.. but I've seen punters do it frequently before.

As it turned out, the Kickoff Return for a TD made it a net zero, as compared to a -2 for the safety and having Pitt get the ball again, so AS IT TURNED OUT, he made a positive decision for the team

SirFozzie · 12-05-2009, 12:40 PM

Oh wow, 20 yard net after the 15 yard personal foul. Can Cincy make this a one score game...

Nevermind

I don't have a high respect for the football intelligence of kickers and punters

DeToxRox · 12-05-2009, 12:41 PM

LOL @ that INT exchange.

heh. You'd think they'd drill it in to their head... "Inside the 10, TAKE THE SAFETY!" (of course, the panic/adrenaline rush probably knocks everything out of their head)

And apparently the ball is going to explode at halftime, they're playing sillyball

Galaxy · 12-05-2009, 12:43 PM

Kind of a strange, yet fun, game.

Dr. Sak · 12-05-2009, 12:43 PM

Wow dpi was missed on that long pass.

SirFozzie · 12-05-2009, 12:44 PM

Now this is setting your kicker up to fail.. 55 yards, into the open end of the stadium?

Atocep · 12-05-2009, 01:10 PM

Tom Savage is playing like a true freshman. WVU up 21-3 after a pick 6.

Atocep · 12-05-2009, 01:13 PM

and Rutgers returns the kickoff for a TD. 21-11

SirFozzie · 12-05-2009, 01:45 PM

I'm really beginning to think neither team wants to win in the Pitt-Cincy game

Dr. Sak · 12-05-2009, 01:47 PM

I'm beginning to think neither or these teams are that good and if they play the loser of the Bama/Florida game in the Sugar Bowl, they will get killed.

henry296 · 12-05-2009, 01:55 PM

Can any team in Pittsburgh cover kick offs?

Dr. Sak · 12-05-2009, 01:56 PM

Must be something in the river.

Now that i'm at my computer I can type better. I was yelling at the punter to rekick the ball since it didn't cross the line of scrimmage.

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 01:58 PM

Missed extra point.........

cthomer5000 · 12-05-2009, 01:59 PM

Rutgers has come up massive in the last 5 minutes here. Bomb TD to cut it to 3, and just stuffed WVU on 3rd and 1. Ball coming back on a punt now.

cthomer5000 · 12-05-2009, 02:05 PM

Rutgers shits the bed and gets a punt blocked. Ugh. I guess if they can at least just hold them to a field goal, this aint over.

Lathum · 12-05-2009, 02:08 PM

wow, Silvestro comes up huge that series.

SirFozzie · 12-05-2009, 02:08 PM

Stupid stupid Personal Foul for the late hit.

Dr. Sak · 12-05-2009, 02:13 PM

Couldnt agree more, he had plenty of time to pull up plus the WR was not making an effort to go upfield at all.

SirFozzie · 12-05-2009, 02:14 PM

Tie Ball game.

Who saw this at 31-10?

I sure as hell didn't.

Atocep · 12-05-2009, 02:16 PM

JB with a hell of a play.

cthomer5000 · 12-05-2009, 02:18 PM

Rutgers: you blew this.

SirFozzie · 12-05-2009, 02:24 PM

If you're pitt, do you run or pass here...

I'd throw.. I wouldn't trust my defense in keeping Cincy out, and one more first down may be enough to run significant amount of time off

SirFozzie · 12-05-2009, 02:24 PM

Big first down.

I'd still go for the TD, slick field, plus timeouts..

hoopsguy · 12-05-2009, 02:26 PM

Scored too fast.

SirFozzie · 12-05-2009, 02:26 PM

wow. wowwie wow wow wow

Lathum · 12-05-2009, 02:27 PM

set up for a great finish

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 02:27 PM

Cinc let them score.. if he downs it in the one during the run then game is nearly over. Now after that brutal mistake on the extra point, they're only up six.

Now they lose by one with Cinci's offense. Ouch, big time.

SirFozzie · 12-05-2009, 02:29 PM

That Cincy Kid is going to get Kerrigan'd some day

Wow

cthomer5000 · 12-05-2009, 02:29 PM

Ridiculously generous spot on that bobbled catch on first down

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 02:31 PM

Fortunately those three yards would not have mattered in any kind of situation.

and cinci TD. lol

Young Drachma · 12-05-2009, 02:31 PM

Well executed 2-minute drill by Cincy in one minute.

Rutgers did indeed blow that, I only caught the end, but what wasted opportunities..but that seems to be a Schiano special, though I prefer this and the new stadium than the days of 1-AA Rutgers.

Young Drachma · 12-05-2009, 02:31 PM

Man, hell of a job by Cincy.

Lathum · 12-05-2009, 02:31 PM

SirFozzie · 12-05-2009, 02:31 PM

Just wow.

Great throw and catch

Dr. Sak · 12-05-2009, 02:32 PM

This is fuckin awesome! FUCK YOU PITT

Again, although Cinci were playing from behind needing a TD rather than being tied and having ability to run down the clock. But Pitt still has some clock to work with, needing only 3.

mauchow · 12-05-2009, 02:32 PM

What a heartbreaker for Pitt. All they needed to do was make the simplest point in football and they'd be AT WORST headed to overtime...but they biffed it.

Still time for a FG pending a decent return. Two timeouts left.

cthomer5000 · 12-05-2009, 02:32 PM

SirFozzie · 12-05-2009, 02:33 PM

Cover guy looked back too early and fell back there.

SirFozzie · 12-05-2009, 02:34 PM

Not smart. Lost 5 seconds there, and didn't even get the 20.

Young Drachma · 12-05-2009, 02:34 PM

Bet Notre Dame is enjoying watching Kelly's team come back in this one.

Young Drachma · 12-05-2009, 02:37 PM

Better for the Big East if they're undefeated. So I'm glad Cincy came back to take it.
