Boost for Pitt

You PSU'ers irk me a little. Pitt makes it to a BCS bowl in football, and to the NCAA Tournament in basketball, but it isn't good enough. All you guys want to talk about is how they did once they got there. Yet you guys have teams that had nothing to show for their efforts after their respective regular seasons were over. Sounds like the old "Misery loves company" routine. You're miserable, and you want us to feel that way too. Well, it ain't workin'. If your only ammunition is Pitt-Utah, and Pitt-Pacific, you're in big trouble. Do you guys think of this stuff when you're sitting at home watching OTHER teams play in the post-season?

i think you summed it up in Better to loved and lost and to never to have loved at all

[Heaven&Hoops]

You can tell PSU doesn't play any post-season basketball that means anything. Their fans call the NCAA Tournament "the playoffs."

bdftbllham55........you should just keep quiet on the subject of basketball. Penn State can't even qualify for the NIT tourney let alone the NCAA.

Their season is all but over once the Big Ten tournament schedule is released.

Actually, I talk s**t on everybody. Want me to rip in Syracuse again? How about West Virginia? How about Cal's performance against Texas Tech? But see those all fail in comparison to the Utah game. Can't wait to see that 8-3 Pitt team take on a 6-6 Baylor and get obliterated. See, playing quality opponents makes you better in the long-run. But I guess it's all in how you perceive it.

Heaven&Hoops,

I like PSU in football, and football only. Duke is where my loyalties lie in basketball, always have, always will.

[Pale Rider]

ham- just curious- how far back does your Duke loyalties go? Back to Jim Spanarkle and Tinkerbell Banks? Billy Packer and Dick Groat? Now I'm date-ing myself!

[Heaven&Hoops]

Billy Packer played at Wake Forest.

bdftbllham55,

So I guess what you are telling me is that you are a front-runner, bandwagon, etc. Well I guess that isn't true since PSU isn't very good in football anymore.

[Pale Rider]

Heaven- My bad. You of course are right. In the heat of the moment, as they say.
