PITTSBURGH — Pitt head coach Pat Narduzzi speaks with the media, including Alan Saunders of Pittsburgh Sports Now, about his defense rebounding from the loss to Western Michigan, the challenges of facing an FCS team in New Hampshire and more after practice on Thursday, Sept. 23, 2021.
I do agree with Pompeani when he stated that there really is no benefit for power 5 teams to play teams that aren’t. It’s a no win situation. When you win you’re supposed to win and when you lose you catch hell. So there’s no real benefit in the deal. I personally have never enjoyed or looked forward to these type of matchups.

Narduzzi never fails to disappoint with his answers to serious questions. The one reporter asked him about the offensive line and which version he felt performed in a more acceptable fashion. In typical Narduzzi fashion he totally avoided answering the question. That’s what irritates me about Narduzzi.

I think he is on a hot seat, this weeks game should be an easy win but you never know with them.
GT looks to be a bit better than originally thought, that’s going to be a must win for them and it’s not going to be easy as originally thought.
It’s going to be an interesting year and let’s see how he handles the pressures.

Blah, blah, blah.
He will need to go back and “look at the tapes”

I hope they use this week to work on Dime Defense. I see EVERY team has help in the secondary and not extra LBs, NOT Pitt! No team has enough DBs to cover one on one every play (except maybe Alabama).
I really hope Pitt changes soon or it will be the end of Narduzzi at Pitt. H2P!

”We’ve reached an ACC championship,” Narduzzi said. “Our goal is not just to get there. Our goal is to get there and win the thing. And in the next couple of years, we’re going to win one. I can guarantee you that.”
