Military Bowl

Destroyer firing ASROC (rocket-thrown torpedo). Old time hockey. Thank God we never had to find out how effective it really was.
we hit one of our subs with a practice torpedo- an actual direct hit, which wasn't supposed to happen-they had to surface to check for damage, which there wasn't any
but yeah, it's doubtful that would happen very often
 
Have to give Narduzzi credit for one thing, they tend to get alot of turnover, return TD's that make the game more competitive than it appears. Pitt was down 31-7 at one point I believe, and made it a 10 point game within minutes. Maybe some of that has to do with the other team putting in subs, while Pitt rolls with the first team until the very end. They do appear strong in the 4th quarter. But then their D eventually does kind of wilt.
 
Navy held the ball for over 40 minutes.

Nice 11 win season!

Thank you for your service midshipmen!

Navy's first ever 11 win season. Congrats, Middies!

Anyone would "wilt" after the water dance at the end of the third quarter.They look like a bunch of idiots.
 
10th? You are way off. They won their 10th right after the end of the Peloponnesian Wars. And they've been on a roll ever since.
Those were great teams - only rivaled by the back to back Champions in 1382-83. You really saw Pitt come into its own as the Dark Ages were fading.

I paid attention to some Pitt games this year and all 4 games I watched the games were over in the first half. Pitt was boat raced and watched teams coast to victories! Pitt is very lucky to have beaten Syracuse and GT. GT would love a mulligan on their game, because they went away from what worked in the first half and ended up losing on a 57 yard field goal. Syracuse QB got knocked out with a targeting hit to the head and was never the same in their second half after dominating the first half....again a last second FG wins it for Pitt. That's the difference between 8-5 right now and 6-7. Keep in mind Pitt also played 2 teams who played with their second string qb(one in a monsoon) and won those games. Very easily could have been a 4-8 season if not for a few breaks. I did not see much improvement at Pitt. In fact, I seen a team regress and a coach who gets rattled and yells at the refs while looking foolish.
 
PSU beat UCF in Dublin to go 8-4? Hmmm, news to me, but then again I didn't realize that The Navy - Marine Corps Memorial Stadium was on the ocean either.... As they say on the fishing boat, I think we have a live one on the line here fellas.
Hmmm....4 pages so far....looks like it's 9nationalchampions that has all of you on the line.

9FakeNationalChampionshipsThatIPretendAreRealBecauseIHaveNoLife is the worst troll ever and deserves to be mocked at every opportunity. That is all this thread is about.

Yea, weird that ASWP fans are permitted to troll and flame the board with impugnity but actual PSU fans should not be permitted to ridicule and laugh at their absurdities which has far higher "entertainment value" for most on here than the lame posts from the "posers" telling us that PSU fans ridiculing loopy delusional ASWP fans that come on this board unabated equates to any of us giving a rat's @as about irrelevant ASWP.

We're trying to get to 6 pages....one page for each of the 100 yards that Navy put up on your pathetic defense.

That's 600 yards for you slow sPitters.

Or, 42 pages. That would match the time of possession Navy had the ball against your pathetic defense.

That's 42 minutes for you slow sPitters.

lol You think I'm a Pitt fan?! "My" team's defense doesn't take the field until Jan 2nd.. and no, I'm not a Georgia fan.

Yea the first time I saw that on TV I thought what a bunch of idiots, add in that they were losing by 17 and it was even worse.
So I thought Ok, maybe its me, I'm somewhat reserved and don't really like all the dancing after making a (what used to be considered standard play) and Penn State was never known for doing that sort of thing. But I was sitting with a group of Navy fans both my age, older and younger and a couple of Middies and they all thought it was ridiculous. ahhh Vindication.:)
 
How is this trolling? I asked you guys to watch the Military Bowl and apparently many of you did. We will play in 8 months so bragging rights are on the line soon enough!

BTW…..your board has as much PITT topics as the PITT site has PSU.

Feel free to start another thread in 8 months which will have the same results. You're even getting laughed at even on your own message board. You're the Pitt version of RutgersAl, but even less likable and more delusional.

Now feel free to beat your fake 9 some more while trying to convince everyone it's real.

Even RutgersAl is happy that the Narduzzi/Rutgers dance didn't last very long.

Uhh the 2 posts asking me to come back to the BWI board where from PSU fans! Not too quick on the uptake are you? BTW...NCAA recognizes the 9NC so the joke is on you!

No at least have the courage of your own convictions. YOU expected a pitt blowout and for the Dooze and his defensive prowess to stifle the Navy offense. YOU wanted us all to see it, well we did and we weren't impressed.

BTW, again it was you and your people polluting the board over here Sat. night. starting thread after thread.
Don't act like its some big mystery why there are a ton of replies.
Lets see what your board looks like during and after our game, especially if we lose.
 
I made no prediction of a PITT win in my thread! I expected a close game and was dissatisfied with our LB play! Thanks for adding to the TV ratings!

Actually I was at the game with a group of Navy people. I guess I'm just tougher than most pitt fans the "ocean wind" didn't bother me. LOL.
Oh and I wasn't impressed with your "massive" showing of fans.

NCAA does not recognize 9 National Championships. If I'm wrong, please provide documentation.

I need to resurrect this description of you from an old post

Because he's literally doing the equivalent of stuffing a 9 inch piece of kielbasi down his shorts and pointing to it and bragging, when in reality all that's there is 1 inch that hasn't seen any action in 40 years. He should be mocked.

I see four here: NCAA College Football Championship History

1910 (recognized along with with Harvard), 1916,1937,1976

Funny thing - I don't see Yale fans puffing up their chests and shouting out loud about their 16 championships.:rolleyes:

The last thing I would ever do as a fan is brag about championships I have never witnessed, especially if those titles/championships were in the prior to 1950. Pitt's "8th" National Championship was in 1937. If you were 11 when you witnessed it, you are now approaching 90 years old. I'd venture to guess that many of the Pitt fans that are on this site have never seen Pitt do anything other than be mediocre and only know Pitt was relevant briefly because their pap tells them.

Seriously. PSU is credited for one in 1911 (recognized along with Princeton) and I had forgotten about it until I just looked over the list. If you're talking post-1950 and you're an Alabama fan, you've got something to crow about.
 
Just FYI, Pitt sold out three allotments for the military bowl, and had at least 40 % of the attendance. Many things to criticize about the game, but Pitt fan support is not one of them.

Good luck in your bowl game. Don't mind those of my ilk that come over here to harass you. Looking forward to our game next year.
