And yet I can believe it. I can believe that Pitt would manage to make UConn look like a BCS-bound team. I can believe that Pitt would disappoint us all. Nothing comes as a surprise anymore.
I don’t know about this team anymore. We can easily lose every single one of our games remaining and finish the season 2-10. But then we watch Syracuse beat Louisville and you think we can do that too. There’s hope to go 6-6 and play in a bowl game. It’s hard to figure out what to think.
I try to give our QB’s as much credit as I can, especially with them usually getting .2 seconds to throw the ball. Our o-line is horrible, no doubt. I tried to tell myself that Kevan Smith is better than he actually looks. I’m done trying — Smith is a bad quarterback. He got out of the pocket and had his TE wide open 7-10 yards away and HE THREW A 3 YARD BOUNCE PASS. Need it repeated? HE THREW THE BALL 3 FREAKIN’ YARDS INTO THE GROUND. I’m glad the fans booed him because he definitely deserved it. At least we found a replacement for Levance Fields.
I don’t want to say too much yet. I rarely (read: never) leave the game early, and yet yesterday was one of those times. After a game like that, the emotions are going crazy — it might take another day or two to calm down.
