It’s hard to take a lot away from Pitt’s 38-3 win over YSU. Pitt did what it was supposed to. They won in an ultimately lopsided way. They were never in danger against a clearly inferior team.
I’m not knocking anything. It’s just that I still don’t know what this team can or will do this season.
Dion Lewis is the starting tailback for the foreseeable future. He performed very well.
The defense was solid, but showed some lapses in concentration.
The O-line still makes me nervous. There were a couple moments where they absolutely failed against YSU.
Bill Stull does not inspire, and the fans are waiting for him to fail. He probably wasn’t as bad as it seemed. At the same time, Sunseri did not do much to convince me why he should be starting either.
The offensive playcalling was solid. Heavy emphasis on the run as expected, but the ball was spread around and definite efforts made to get the ball to Dickerson and Baldwin. Nice use of the middle of the field.
This very much had the feel of an exhibition game.
