Pitt beat Duke 52-45 on a last second 25 yard TD pass

So, Pitt went up 52-45 with 5 seconds left, and kicked off to Duke with 5 seconds left.
Duke managed to fumble the kickoff into the end zone for a safety as time expired and lost 54-45.
In case you’re wondering how Pitt went from tied to up 9 in the closing seconds.

FSU head coach Willie Taggart said he's going to put the hammer down. He said there were players who flat out quit against Clemson on Saturday. Here are FSU's largest shutout losses

1973 49-0 loss to Florida(FSU was 0-11 in 1973)
1976 47-0 loss to 2-8 Miami
1959 42-0 loss to Georgia
1955 34-0 loss to Georgia Tech
1955 34-0 loss to Miami

I think it is time for VT to get just a little uncomfortable about what they are doing in Charlottesville. The new AD (a Bulldawg) has very publicly come out saying FB will get the needed attention to become relevant (my paraphrasing).

@ilovetheoption ...curious on your view of the realistic potential of the next 5-10 years. Is UVA ready to make a move long term?


Yes, uva is. They started about 10 years ago when 1 donor made a huge commit to their stadium. Believe it or not, he/they demanded their band actually increase in size and start wearing traditional uniforms. Branding?

Their basketball & baseball teams are more proof of commitment from their Admin.

Still scumazz snobs though.

I am disgusted with the FSU players that were high fiving and celebrating after one of them speared Lawrence and was ejected for tageting. Glad Lawrence wasn't injured but that appeared to be what they tried to do. I despise FSU almost as much as Uga. Totally classless.
