I'll be surprised if we give up 25. I expect Pitt to go deep early and often as Akron had some good luck getting behind our defenders but they couldn't deliver. Pitt didn't try once against YSU, which tells me they will a lot against PSU.

I am taking the over and PSU to beat the spread. lol

I know this is comical, but 48-14 seems like a likely score to me.

Will Pitt declare a moral victory if they hold PSU under the spread?

I'd be surprised if Barkley gets 23 carries. That means he's playing well into the 4th quarter. 126 yards means that he'll only average 5.5 yds per carry. I think there is a better chance of 20 carries for 140 yards. He's bound to get at least 1 25+ yard gain.

320 passing yards for McSorley is possible but I think it will be closer to 300. The longer Pitt stays in the game the more throws McSorley will get.

I'll be disappointed if Pitt scores 25 points but I think it's possible. PSU got a shut out last week but Akron's offense was very unimpressive. We're going to learn a lot more about our defense this week.

From where is pitt getting 25 points? Charity?

Fifty one- seventeen, then watch for the cheap shots.
