Twitter Reaction: Pitt’s Defense Can’t Stop Miami’s Offense, Loses 38-34

Published

on

Pitt’s road to the ACC Championship Game hit a speedbump on Saturday as the Panthers defense failed to show up losing to Miami, 38-34. Canes freshman quarterback Tyler Van Dyke carved apart the Pitt secondary as he passed for 426 yards and 3 TD’s. Pitt’s record falls to 6-2 and 3-1 in the Coastal Division, but they remain in first place. Pitt fans obviously are unhappy especially with this defensive performance.

Major defensive issues! When will Narduzzi change his scheme??? W Michigan and a Freshman QB make Pitt look like a HS team.

Yes our defensive was horrible today. Missed tackles missed assignments hurt. But the officiating is something that has to be talked about. Those officials appeared lost, confused, and the game was moving too fast for them. With one of the worst calls of the year they have taken away the CFP, NY6, ACCCG, and knocked Kenny out of the Heisman race. Just like any other job you have to be held accountable for screwing up at work.

That missed call on the safety was atrocious. That’s really inexcusable. The young Miami Quarterback played really well. He’s going to be a good one. Pitt made a few crucial mistakes and didn’t tackle well. It’s disappointing of course but not the end of the world. The missed call on the safety does have me seething I must admit. If the correct call is made on the field I believe we win.

Any QB that can walk and chew gum will carve the defense like a turkey, and the clown calling the offensive plays should be benched , 90% plus passing and not even 20 run plays . What the hell was Whipple thinking, obviously he was not.If there is any more new ways to get our azz kicked on game day, this staff will find them. A wise man once said, : there are three things that can happen when you throw the ball”, and two are bad for you. Forget 10 wins, maybe 8 tops.
