Pittsburgh 9/9 6:30 CW

[D.A.H.]

Totally agree. The announcer are broadcasting ACC so a little bias is expected, but i thought they did a great job. Very informative and the camera work was very good. Definitely a good watching experience for the CW.

don't forget, the ACC network is produced by espn, not by the cw - you should see a good product

Why were refs stopping play while Pitt ran defensive players off the field?

Why were refs stopping play while Pitt ran defensive players off the field?

What I don't understand is that while the refs let defense players onto the field (no doubt in answer to the offense making substitutions) why isn't the play clock suspended? It seemed to me that several times the clock almost ran out with the official standing over the ball.

I noticed that as well. I'm wondering if that was gamesmanship by Narduzzi to run someone on late in order to not let us get a good look at the defensive personal before a rushed snap.

I tried to type this earlier and it went into the ether. Richard has it right. if the offense subs, the refs have to allow the defense to sub and the ref will stay over the ball until both teams change personnel. There were times where we had momentum when I wish we would have gone hurry up to stop them from doing that.

We all got our hopes up from this win, but it turns out PITT just isn't very good... and neither are we.

So, the teams that were picked preseason last and second to last in the Big 12 both beat Pitt. I like where WVU alternate colors in the sections. Also, WVU fans sing an interesting rendition of Sweet Caroline.
