Sorry about the quiet today. Moving out of the hotels into an apartment for a few months until everything is taken care of at the house. (Not the way I expected to spend Rosh Hashana, but what can you do — at least Pitt’s tradition of scheduling a home game during at least one High Holy Day continues.) So, no chance to listen to the audio of a satisfying rout.

Look, I wish Pitt wasn’t playing 1-AA teams. I don’t think there is a fan of any legit 1-A team that likes to see a 1-AA opponent on the schedule. I’m not about to stop railing against them and ripping on them when I see them on the schedule. That said, Pitt did what it was supposed to. Destroyed them. Took them apart, made sure the game was fully salted away, and got the starters out by the end of the 3d quarter.

There’s not much to really discuss about this game, given the quality of the opponent. I’m more of the opinion expressed by H.B. Blades.

“My mind is on Toledo now.”

“We can’t underestimate a MAC (conference) school (like Toledo). They have talent and we need to be focused on details.”

Was it really 3 whole years ago since Pitt lost to Toledo 35-31? It wasn’t even televised, but that loss still haunts me — that and the fact that Lee’s wedding was that night and it was bone dry.
