I figured I'd throw out my own line on what I thought the game would be at. You know, like your b-buddy the Titan.

Pitt had more talent last year and MSU was way down last year from where they are now this year. What makes you think Pitt can go into East Lansing and pick up a W when they couldn't even close out a halftime lead last year @ the "jampacked" Heinz Field?

[Crimson09Crazy]

your getting real creative with the whole Heinz Field thing but yeah this is a tough game the injury bug has hurt Pitt more then any team i can think of...It will be a great win if they can go in a get a W


Keys to the game

Smith needs to be smart
Shady needs the ball
the Dline needs to step up with the loss of Mustakas
The LB's need to make open field tackles...

MSU has 2 good RB's we cant let them pull a Julius Jones!


I'll be up in East Lansing Saturday....So since PSU and MSU are rivals im sure you guys have managed to go into enemy territory?Whats it like up there?

Cold. I've been there 2 times and it was unbelieveably cold. Though, this being the 3rd week, it should be fine. The game is always played the last week of the season in the big10. The fans are typical of any big10 school. They don't like you and you don't like them. It's simple.

Have fun getting there. It's a blast
