[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 829752, member: 282"] Looking through more of the replay: [LIST=1] [*]The officials did a terrible job. I mean abysmal. I’m not saying Pitt wouldn’t have won anyway, but if you just watch the condensed game you’ll see holding where the Pitt lineman has his arm around the back of our DE and has a handful of his number. You can’t let that go without calling it. That’s not “hand on the shoulder” stuff; it’s blatant. [*]Another highlight had a Pitt receiver run out of bounds on his own and come back in several yards away, and catch a pass for about 25 yards. Maybe the official never saw it, or maybe he just said “close enough to where you went out, since you obviously don’t know”. You can’t excuse that kind of officiating. [*]I just watched another badly blown call. smh. [*]The ACC will not discipline the officiating crew for that game, but doing nothing corrodes the game and tarnishes our conference. [*]We rushed 3 players most of the time, sometimes 4. We let receivers get open with 8 men in coverage. I’d like to give Pickett credit for an incredible QB effort, but we did little to pressure him. When we did, he sidestepped us and bought a ton of time. [*]Pitt brought mayhem. They had 7 rush, sometimes 1 or 2 backed out, and they confused our line. Even when they didn’t blitz or stunt, they straight up beat 5-7 blockers with 4 men. [*]Our running backs and wide receivers overall played well.

[*]The game was really over by halftime, but I didn’t see anything different after the half, either on offense or defense. [*]From previous game film, it was clear that Pickett loves rolling to his right, and you have to contain him on that side. A lot of the time, we didn’t. It’s like we never watched film.
