Tough crowd. Yes, the first quarter was terrible, but that was a nice drive. And the D has done well to hold Pitt to 3 so far.

Tough crowd? We had zero yards and zero points in the first quarter. We just gave up a 75 yard drive and trail by 3 with a little over 2 minutes to go in the half. Pathetic.

Don't sell us short; we had one yard of offense.

THank you, Cardcrimson! I agree that sticker is a good tribute for the fire tragedies.

Two minute drill with full timeouts. Let's watch . . .

Because we are down three points and had a bad first quarter offensively it's pathetic?
This is a tough crowd.

My ESP isn't very good. I posted right after we scored, not after Pitt answered.

False start with 1:34, 3rd and 10, pass incomplete. Punt.
RE: Sun Bowl Game Thread -

Of course with third and ten, we may want the clock to tick.
And, Pitt will get the ball back with 3 time outs and 1 minute 30 on the clock.

If 1 yard of total offense and zero points in a full quarter isn't pathetic, what is?

We were very vulnerable to a fake outside followed by a run up the middle on the last Pitt drive. Hope there can be a halftime adjustment (that doesn't let the outside run kill us).

Played that one well.

If this is our preview of next year's team, I am concerned.

That was quite a BS call.

We're lucky Okereke wasn't called for a targetting; he had his hands up to try to bat down the pass, but he did hit the Pitt QB in the head.

When they start playing games for just one quarter, then I'll agree with you.

Over on ESPN, there is a good game coming down to the wire between Cincy and VA Tech
RE: Sun Bowl Game Thread -
BostonCard - 12-31-2018
Total yards: Pitt 226, Stanford 85
First downs: Pitt 13, Stanford 4
Third down efficiency: Pitt 4/9, Stanford 0/5
Time of possession: Pitt 19:43, Stanford 10:17
Yards per play: Pitt 5.5, Stanford 3.7
Given that the score is only 10-7, you would have thought that Stanford was up a couple of turnovers, but so far no turnovers.

The defense can be applauded for holding Pitt to 10 in a half. This must be the worst offensive performance in a half by a Stanford team . . . ever?
RE: Sun Bowl Game Thread -
CornFed - 12-31-2018
Yeah, but it's only a half. Doubt it can be labelled pathetic yet.
