Please explain your answer in the comments.

You're damn right we play Pitt.

I don't even want to talk about revenge for this season's two losses -- you don't need revenge when it's Pitt.  You should wake up, hate Pitt, brush your teeth, hate Pitt, go to work, hate Pitt.  The list is pretty infinite.  The only things not involved with hating Pitt?  Stealing a policeman's gun and getting tasered, growing a mustache, and trying to run faster mid-game.  All classics.

I wish I could find a good screenshot from last night's game because Jamie Dixon's hair was spectacluar.  Truly a vison.  Jay Wright may have his fancy suits, but no amount of gel is going to produce the coif that Dixon is sporting.  Straight back with a slight poof, he looks like a My Little Pony.  I bet even Steve Lavin was jealous.  I really want to touch it, but in a non-sexual way.  Or in a sexual way.

Lavin must be content knowing his throne of hair stardom is being inherited by Dixon.  Let's just hope Jamie keeps going down this road, because we all know what happens when you try to reverse course:

Yikes!  Not good, Steve, not good.  Anytime my best comparison for your hair is Erik Estrada, bad things are afoot.

Bill Stewart. Jeff Mullen. Dave Johnson.

Ok, you've had your year. You've proven your ineptitude. Goodbye.

You changed the entire offense because we lost to Pitt last year. Now instead of one bad offenseive game against Pitt, we have played 11 bad offensive games, and still lost to Pitt.

I love a good QB zone on 3rd and 9 twice in one game. I love a ridiculous trick play to the short side of the field on 3rd and goal at the 4. I love that our only TD was on a miraculous run by Pat White on an otherwise terrible 3rd and 4 call. But I especially like losing 4 games in a regular season and having your scoring drop 20 points per game when you return 9 starters on offense.

Thank you Jeff Mullen for bringing the Wake Forest field-goal offense to Morgantown. I'm going to go kill myself now, wait, not me, you.

The long West Virginia nightmare is over! Finally, Fraud has realized that he has absolutely no shot of winning the case and will pay WVU the $4 million he owes. Take the day off work, have a beer with your friends, and enjoy your final opportunity to complain about He Who Shall Not Be Named (Rich Rodriguez).

While I am happy this whole damn thing is over I won't be totally content until I see the final terms. I'm worried that Fraud won't pay any interest or attorney's fees, which combined, will be just under a $1 million. Stay tuned

Want to know why Pitt didn't land star recruit Terrelle Pryor?

The chief reason he never looked at Pitt has to be that Pitt has a tough time putting fannies in the Heinz Field seats. Who wants to play in front of 25,000 when you can play before crowds four times as large at Ohio State?

You can argue that Pryor could have been the one to make Pitt a big winner and sell a lot of tickets. I'm not sure he has the time for that. Pitt, though taking a big step in the right direction by beating West Virginia Dec. 1, still has a long way to go. It didn't even make it to a bowl game the past three seasons. If Pryor is as good as he appears, he won't be in college all that long. He'll be off to the NFL after three years.

No, Pryor wants to play for a national championship contender. That eliminates Pitt.
As much as Pitt fans want to yell and scream about "13-9," they're still just as irrelevant as always. Seriously, why think that anything is going to change when you don't support your program?

When Logan Heastie and Tajh Boyd first stepped on Mountaineer Field, they were awestruck and wondered how great the place must be when sold out on gameday. Think Pitt recruits imagine Heinz Field 1/3 full?
