A man who's been trained to ignore pain, ignore weather, to live off the land, to eat things that would make a billy goat puke. In *St. Louis* his job was to dispose of enemy personnel. To kill! Period! Win by attrition. Well, *Steven Jackson* was the best.

Grr

Pryor already 2/3 with a TD over Marshall. That was quick….

Not hugely impressed by the South Carolina D-line on that drive

The Gamecocks were able to get an INT with 10:22 to go on a deflection, but Austin Davis, the S. Miss QB (on the watch list), looked strong. Too much body in his throws, but he was making plays.

Alshon Jeffrey now

Utah about to upset Pitt

61 yard TD for Jordan Wynn makes it 24-13, Utah. Dion Lewis is going to have to carry Pitt if they want to come back with 8 min remaining. Baldwin hasn’t factored.

And just as I say that

A 44-yd TD to Baldwin brings Pitt back in the game. Damn you, reality.

Can Pitt WR Mike Shanahan be an NFL TE?

He’s just a soph, but certainly the skill set looks right.

Wow

Likely game winning TD by Baldwin called back for illegal shift…on Baldwin.

What a game

Utah takes it in OT. Great way to start the season. Pitt was ranked #15 in both the AP & the Coaches’ poll. On to USC-Hawaii.

Over Rated!

Being the huge Cincinnati fan I am, I’m torn by this loss.

Any loss by Pitt is great by me, but against Utah, it re-enforces that the Big East is weak. I commend Pitt for scheduling such a high stakes game the first game of the year. (Better than another Ohio school facing off against Marshall)

Cincinnati gets as much love from the AP as STL gets from the media. It’s sad that the 2-time defending champs get no pre-season love.

Here’s to a 3-peat!

Not that it makes any sense

because he’s not a very strong NFL prospect, but if the Rams somehow end up with USC RB Allen Bradford, our future QB-RB tandem would be Bradford and Bradford. Just sayin…

Really impressed by Greg Salas from Hawaii

He was the only guy from Hawaii I’m really tracking right now, and for good reason. He’ll most likely end the first half with 3 catches for 35 yards, but against this USC secondary without a strong WR corps to take the focus off of him, he’s shown a lot tonight. Strong cuts, physicality, plus quickness for his size (6’2", 210). Interesting guy to keep an eye on this year.

Well damn

Salas helps create a hell of a drive to finish the first half, scoring a TD with just 12 seconds left. Now 6 catches for 70 yards and a TD in the 1st half. Great hands on the TD catch.

WOW

They called him down just short. I don’t like the call, but such is life. And why can’t we get the ref’s microphones to work in 2010? He signaled how short it was, but it appeared he was calling it a TD. Deceptively confusing.

Thanks for the shoutout 3k.

Plus how do you feel about NC Marvin Austin DT?

by Tevin T. Broner on Sep 3, 2010 12:42 AM CDT reply actions

He's talented as hell

The comparison has been thrown out, but it’s apt: Carlos Dunlap. All the physical traits you’re looking for, few of the intangibles. I don’t know if he can hold his draft stock in the top half of the 1st right now. Like Dunlap, I expect him to go early 2nd round.

Has to be considered so

Given the strength of Pittsburgh’s overall team, their performance last year, and the talent at key positions (minus QB). Chalk another one up to home advantage – just not enough today for Pitt. Of course, that reflects pretty poorly on the big Pitt prospect

turnover on downs

USC’s got this one in the bag. I’m calling it a night. Great start to the season. I wish Friday was Saturday.
