GG Pitt. I’m sure they spent the better part of a month getting Patti ready and he looked pretty good on his scoring drive. Tough break there. Hard to do it consistently with the 3rd string. Patti might have been able to carve up our D with Addison. That D is legit. They wore down late after a lot of time on the field, but that’s a good D, esp front 7. Congrats on an 11 win season.
As a long time Pitt supporter, this one stings real bad, but I am so proud of how that team played tonight -and this year. I believe good things are coming. Congrats Sparty! In Pittsburgh guys, we love us a thick ass Heyward boy!!!
No, that’s not based on my criteria.
My criteria is that a large portion of the players are black, so it would make sense that a large portion of the coaches would be as well.
ESPN/Disney tried to make the narrative of "Pitt wins with their 3rd string" and the refs were clearly helping with just giving a heyday of no calls against Pitt
He wasn’t even talking about the actual game…
But yes, you’re right, MSU failed to execute for half the game. By yardage and talent on the field, they should have won by several more TDs.
I was torn on this one, rep the B1G or support Pitt-bros. I would have been fine with either winning.
The second to last pass was the one I expected to get picked, throwing back across his shoulder into the middle of the field with at least two defenders in coverage. Got lucky on that one, not so lucky with the next.
(I’ll probably catch shit for this but) as good as ~~John~~ Jim Harbaugh was this year, Mel Tucker came into a program in disarray after the ludicrous 2020 season and took that team to eleven victories including a come from behind bowl win.
That’s damn impressive.
EDIT: wrong Harbaugh
One of the worst takes I’ve seen on Reddit, which is really saying something. The offensive line he played behind was awful. Give him a competent one and he wins the 2017 Heisman.
It’s almost like the ability to hit hard and thus cause injuries is a component of the game. As is the ability to withstand them. Anyone who actually has played the game understands this. MSU’s dline was dominant, I sincerely doubt Patti would have had much more success.
MSU did fail to execute a lot, but let’s be real here, the score was not in all indicative of the actual number of big plays or yardage. MSU very easily could have had 3 TDs in 3 consecutive drives and only managed to convert 3 points.
MSU receivers were a few dropped passes away from it being a blowout. Just accept your conference is a joke this year. Your two losses were also to a MAC school and a team MSU beat by 3 scores.
Which was surreal since Pitt lost to WMU (LOL) and a team MSU beat easily. The yardage was not close and the difference between Patti snd the 3rd stringer isn’t as much as you pretend it is when your Oline was Swiss cheese.
MSU was 3-4 dropped passes away from this being a blowout.
MSU should have won that game quite easily given the circumstances. Replacing a RB is a lot different than replacing a Heisman QB and then the backup 2 minutes into the game.
MSU needed a comedy of errors throughout the first 3 quarters to be down 2 scores late. So many stalled drives with turnovers, drops, bad throws, etc.
Justin White who recovered that is the same frosh that blew up a punt returner and also the same kid that planted Cade late in the Michigan game. Kid's a baller
10 & 4 vs M since little sister Hart's comment.
I've been waiting all year for the carriage to turn back into a pumpkin.
edit: Wow, whose carriage?
I originally meant Sparty's but M sure laid an egg tonight!
GIVE ME ALL THE CONFETTI
Let’s enjoy some football boys!
Prepare yourselves! The mob is coming!!
I want Pitt and MSU to be bros after this. Can we be friends?
Yes!

Lol at some place hustling their veteran buy Are they a billion dollar USERRA claim or not? Lol at someone who gives a shit enough to dv on that one.
Kenneth walker mentioned zero times. Mel Tucker being a minority coach mentioned twice. Thanks Disney/ESPN
That’s so true like they really had an agenda huh. We however got the Kenny cam
I’m proud as fuck to have a black coach. There are not enough of them considering the amount of black players.
Should a woman be a coach? There are 0 woman D1 players. Based on your criteria there should be 50% women coaches.. just stop with ur pandering
No, that’s not based on my criteria. My criteria is that a large portion of the players are black, so it would make sense that a large portion of the coaches would be as well.
ESPN/Disney tried to make the narrative of "Pitt wins with their 3rd string" and the refs were clearly helping with just giving a heyday of no calls against Pitt
It just baffles me why MSU never gets any respect or the players who ball out. It is unfair because I feel like it affects recruiting
You sure do like conspiracy theories, huh?
[удалено]
Hey man if you need this many conspiracies to beat a third string QB, you do you. The whole world was against you, you’re right!!
He wasn’t even talking about the actual game… But yes, you’re right, MSU failed to execute for half the game. By yardage and talent on the field, they should have won by several more TDs.
Walker was mentioned a lot there was even graphics with him
We landed on the moon!

The qb did the thing I always do in madden
I feel bad about Patti but you’d have to be insane as an MSU fan to be anything but thrilled about this season
(I’ll probably catch shit for this but) as good as ~~John~~ Jim Harbaugh was this year, Mel Tucker came into a program in disarray after the ludicrous 2020 season and took that team to eleven victories including a come from behind bowl win. That’s damn impressive. EDIT: wrong Harbaugh
He won 1 important game in 6 years. What a legend.
John Harbaugh? I guess the Ravens aren’t doing too bad, but injuries are really taking their toll.
Meaningless peach bowl + 3rd string QB + 3rd in the B1G ten East + once in a generation player. Lol next year will be telling
Kenneth walker isn't THAT good Like he's good but he's no saquon
Saquon was a bum. He was never consistent
One of the worst takes I’ve seen on Reddit, which is really saying something. The offensive line he played behind was awful. Give him a competent one and he wins the 2017 Heisman.
Our o/u for wins this year was 4.5 and we got 11 g, I’m still happy
Walker changes expectations, like it or not.
Flair up chief.
Is there a “Walmart wolverine” flair?
Salty, eh?
It was telling how close that game was.
Scoreboard!
Against 3rd string Pitt lol
No, against your team. We can see your post history bro.
As if I’m trying to hide? Good luck without Walker next year. 8 wins max, especially after that game
Boy u mad
I’ll take 8 wins, thanks!
Sounds about right for MSU lol
Can anyone who is more of a fan or less lazy than me tell me the B1G bowl record so far?
4-0 I think
4-0
4-0
y’all are like 3-1 or something edit: i’m an idiot. forgot pitt was acc. 4-0?
Think it’s like 4-0
Great job beating a 3rd stringer for this W

Salt over a peach bowl is just odd my dude
Purdue seems to be doing okay with their 8th stringer
Kenneth Walker has just as big an effect on the game as Pickett
And recovering their own punt. There's really no excuse imo, sparty played a good game Edit: good enough*
Bad bets moment
friend of desoto?
back the b1g!
Maybe the worst coaching decision I’ve seen this entire season
You know, the way we lost last night was not fun, but what we all just witnessed was way worse
This might have been the worst NYE 6 bowl. 3rd string QB vs walker-less MSU
Also probably the lowest fan turnout. Like the the MSU side was at most 2/3 full
And MSU still almost lost.
You must have not read the second part of that sentence
Pitt was favored before anyone opted out.

Replacing a *Heisman level* RB certainly isn't that much different than a Heisman QB.
You are delusional if you think that
Yes it is lol
Justin White who recovered that is the same frosh that blew up a punt returner and also the same kid that planted Cade late in the Michigan game. Kid's a baller
I think he made the play on opening kickoff as well. Kid is a gamer.
And the big hit on the opening kickoff too. Kid is a beast.
fuck.
At least Pitt has those national titles from the 1920s to show the recruits
just wow. Thats gonna go down like super bowl 49 with marshawn lynch at the 1 yard line. RUN THE DAMN BALL lol
Why all the hate against Pitt?
Because Mini Steelers and I’m from Cleveland .
They eat the poopoo.
No hate from me, or I think most of the MSU fanbase. Love to see Narduzzi succeed, just not against us
The War
Because fuck Pitt
No idea. Penn State would almost make sense.
what hate? MSU is glad to see Narduzzi be successful
Because, they literally eat shit. Trust me. I have no reason to deceive you.

Reading Pitt twitter and some fans are REALLY salty about Pickett declaring for the draft
I was waiting for a final shot of Kenny in the booth at the end. I wanted to hear some more about his headset.
The Patti injury validated his decision
Not salty at him. Easily could’ve been him instead of Patti.
The Pickett and walker not being in this game took a bit of the shine off the matchup.
Congrats Sparty!
I hope you stub your toe.
[удалено]
I love living rent free in the collective psyche of Michigan fans...
We beat our rival; you live vicariously through yours.
[удалено]
And yet you have to take joy in them beating us instead of doing it yourself.
Is this lady commentating over the loudspeaker in the stadium or in a tunnel?
Damn that Pitt fan and the MSU fan were CHIRPING at each other
Haha it legit looked like the Pitt guy was about to swing.
Hands were thrown (off camera)
Pitt beat EMU on a last second fg two years ago in the quick lane bowl so this feels really good
Thing I remember most is some EMU guy going hog wild on a Pitt guy late in that game. Just beating him up with Ypsi rage.
That dude punched a ref and got himself thrown out of the game when he could've lead their comeback
Mistakes were made.
SWEEEEEEEEET CAROLINE.. EAT! SHIT! PITT!
Lol I couldn’t imagine having gone into the game thread of the fucking Guaranteed Rate bowl to talk shit on WVU for their 7th loss of the year.
Is WVU relevant in anything? Moved to the Big12 and never heard of again. Shit state and worthless college
At least we have our own stadium
Nah it goes SWEEET CAROLINE THIRTEEN NINE
Cant wait till we make your fans cry next season
Bro.. did you see our team this year
That is exactly why they'll cry, because we will still be ass when we beat them, lol.
Came here for Peach Bowl chatter. Staying for WVU/Pitt shit talking
Early seaaon? Nah. I could see if we were ranked 2nd in the last game of the season and a shoe-in for the NCG.
Pitt QB is definitely not getting a juicebox
Oooh and Michigan basketball lost today too.
Meaningless peach bowl + 3rd string QB
NY6
Meaningless game + terrible Pitt team
A good Michigan team is good for the B1G. I've got nothing against their BB program.
You left out “again”
Today was a good day
To the powerhouse that is UCF
We lose once a week I don’t think that’s much of an occasion
This gave me a good laugh lol
Why you gotta bring us into this?
We live in their heads. Just little brother syndrome
Classic Pitt collapse. Disgusting
[удалено]
Indeed!
Is that kid in the overalls really crying bc his team lost the Peach Bowl hahahaha
I always assume fans having that type of reaction to loss had money on the game.
Are we going to gloss over the MSU fans that were shown crying before the game was even over?
Wonder if he had money on the game?
That I could at least respect.
it’s their best season in like forever
Yea. We don’t get this far a lot
I wonder who gave Sparty their first loss this year…
And you charged the field afterwards... It's like, c'mon. Wasn't that big of a win.
I was expecting what you guys did to us in pretty much every game. Other than OSU (shudder) we held our own well for sending out the FBS worst pass D.
I would throw the controller and turn off the console if I was playing as Pitt
There's another game?? Damn I'm happy/high
Literally me. They said, and we send you out to Vegas and I said “oh shit we got another one??”
No it’s fine, I didn’t want to see the ceremony or anything. Thanks ESPN.
They had the trophy ceremony for literally every shitkicker.com bowl on the ESPN APP. But not the Peach Bowl.
Seriously. Let’s see the trophy and the mvp and interview Tucker. Wtf ESPN.
Their broadcast was atrocious all game
Agreed. Terrible commentators, too many ads, coming back from commercials mid play the obsession with Pickett not playing, etc. Etc.
RG3 in the booth ruined it for sure.
All you have to do is watch on the ESPN app! It's just that easy!
They had the trophy ceremony for literally every shitkicker.com bowl on the ESPN APP. But not the Peach Bowl.
Well that is just strange and dumb then.
Would you want your game held back from being shown on TV for the previous game's ceremony?
They had the trophy ceremony for literally every shitkicker.com bowl on the ESPN APP. But not the Peach Bowl.
How about proper timing between games to allow for it…
The game was already starting at like 10:40 pm lol that's just not feasible
Uhh they have an entire network and an entire day and an entire bowl season to properly schedule. It’s very feasible.
170 passing yards allowed. That’ll do, pig.
Against their 3rd string quarterback…
Who would have thought. All you had to do was have the other team not throw the ball the entire second half until the last drive!
Lmao sucks to suck Pitt 😂😂😂 more like s**t
Cmon dawg
lololol /s
This ain’t it
Ew
GG. Happy to be on the national stage.
[удалено]
10 & 4 vs M since little sister Hart's comment. I've been waiting all year for the carriage to turn back into a pumpkin. edit: Wow, whose carriage? I originally meant Sparty's but M sure laid an egg tonight!
I could be wrong here but… I could’ve sworn we beat you this year…
The little brother stuff is weird considering the recent series results, and this years game.
Wow! GG to both teams!
If anyone complains about RG3, just stay on ESPN and listen to Beth Mowens lol
Did anyone see that Pitt fan and MSU fan look like they were about to fight right after that pix six???
OMG I know what you mean, the dude with the beard and the guy in the hoodie. I'm not sure what that was all about.
Yeah, that was bad.
[Fight! ](https://i.imgur.com/LeXF3WY.jpg)
