The Pitt win last night, was dominated by Troutman on the stats and in the game (PDF), so when you look at the quotes, everyone was asked about Troutman’s play (PDF). Pitt got off to something of a slow start on offense and was down 17-14, but then went on a 17-2 run to end any thoughts of an upset.
A glance at the splits, shows that the starters played most of the first half and then no more than half of the second. I suspect I will be watching the minutes of the starters very closely all year. I really want to see Pitt use more of their bench and keep the starters fresher.
Freshman CB, Darrelle Revis, is eyeing a place on the Pitt basketball team’s bench after the BCS bowl. I wonder if he’ll get off the bench. He will, essentially be joining the team as Big East play begins. I expect by that point, Coach Dixon will have a shorter bench.
