Thanks to last Saturday, Sam Howell if 5th in the ACC. Howell has had two bad weeks—week 1 against VT (12th), and week 4 against us (9th).
Howell has the golden arm, and he’s bigger, and he’s a better runner. Pickett does more with what he has, and doesn’t make many mistakes, and is the poster child for QB efficiency.
Pickett is 6’3”, 220 lbs. Sam Howell lists at 6’1” 220 lbs, fwiw. Broadcast last week said Howell was heavier than that, though.
Howell is much better than Pickett, and will be drafted in 1st round. Credit our D for bringing Howell back down to earth, we made the UNC Oline look like some of our OLs of the past where our QBs didnt even have 2 secs to throw the ball.

I can't see the scores on your link because I'm not paying for that info, but I know that Sims' grade for the UNC game is a 77.1, which is the highest grade for any Tech offensive skill player in that game. Yates scored a 60.3.

I can't imagine GT looking past them after losing 3 straight in the series. Pitt has become very consistent under Narducci (sic)
It’s totally cumulative for the year.

"“He can change a game with his feet as well as his arm,” Pitt strong safety Brandon Hill said. “Keeping him bottled up in the pocket and forcing him to make those throws, I feel like we have a good chance.”
