Early Line vs Pitt (UM 5.5 Fav)

Bingo. It’s Pitt for Christ sake. People on here talking like they’re Bama. I said it before Vag tech - we’re winning out. Malik is no longer an issue and this team rallies behind Perry... it’s not hard to see. Not to mention the confidence (dog) in himself is starting to shine thru. Miami by 14-21.

Ps.... thanks again Richt for yanking Perry and ****ing our season away.

I feel good about Perry after the win but VT has been horrible on D for 3-4 straight games now. Pitt will present an elevated challenge.

No Rosier, forced to go spread with Perry at QB... I see where this is going. This is going to end like the 2016 season where we finally figured out what works on offense with three games left.

The thing is, we didn't really do anything dramatically different on offense against VT. It was the same concepts. VT is just that bad. The one change that might have made a difference is Richt started using the passing game to pick up chunks of yardage instead of trying to force a power running game, particularly in the 2nd half. That, and Cam was hitting the holes quicker than Homer when we did run the ball. But I fear we'll be right back to run, run, pass punt on Saturday.
 
Pitt will try to play us the same as last year, except Perry can actually put the ball where it needs to be. Rosier missed 4 TD’s last year along with other egregious misses.

I hear ya. But it’s still Pitt. I don’t think Perry is Tua by any means but he’s **** sure 10 times the talent Rosier is.

Aside from the upcoming Pitt game I expect to win comfortably... theres one pass Perry has thrown this year that stands out to me more than any. Ironically it was the UVA game where I’ve heard the masses say he was “lost.” First series on 3rd down he threw an absolute dime to Wiggins down the sideline for a big gainer that was ultimately called back due to our putrid oline holding. The rest, from there, is history. Point is.... the kid can make all of the throws. And it was this past week in practice where Perry took the bull by the horns so to say (in my opinion).

As im sure some of you objective fans have also seen... Perry has made more than one of those throws since. And I love the way he’s starting to carry himself on the field. The team is and will feed off of it moving forward. Richt has his flaws...but a competent qb can go a long way in hiding them.

FIVE dropped passes, which were perfect passes, HURT the kids stats and what not. He passes for over 250 yards and probably has two passing TD's. Ouch. But that's all MOOT now.:youre-nuts:

Old Dominion beat them a while ago while they still had Treyvon Hill, their best defensive player from last season, on their roster.
 
Remember two years ago when we had a quarterback that could complete forward passes against Pitt? Blowout win

Remember last year when we had a quarterback who could not complete a forward pass against Pitt? Ugly loss

What's your faith that Perry can exploit a weak Pitt pass defense? I think we light them up through the air and win fairly easily.

Don’t kid yourselves.

We’re going to play it safe w no TE and a week to safe plan.
 
Not betting on either don't know what to expect.oline can't sustain blocks and if cmr doesn't run a spread scheme with a quick release from Perry gonna be another disappointed game.thankfully last one of the year need my laughing gas.trying to decide which to watch while listening to the game.three stooges marathon or Benny hill marathon.
 
It's fvckin crazy that 70% of the money has been bet on Pitt for this game.

They have nothing to play for today at all.
