I’ve never seen a fan base project as much as they do. Do they know they do that? Maybe I should go to the lair and tell them... oh wait they insta-block everyone and then post here and pretend that’s how this site is.

Which of his posts are solid takes? Not sure there has been one where he hasn’t gone on the attack over something trivial. I guess he cuts and pastes recruiting info from time to time...
I want an old school psu version of this shirt from the joepa era with a fullback dive....
Nothing screams small time like this crap - I guess when you only pull one out of your ass every 2 years you need to hype it but seriously- keychains and this stupid stuff.
There are a lot of cretins over there and the Spankster is at the top of the list. Zeroes trying to become ones.
This is amazing. Any type of sanctions being put forth for this behavior. Did you here the term used to describe another African American player? Street thug behavior period, these guys are not there for school. Makes me sick.
I doubt UCF gave its permission for the UCF logo to be used on this shirt. Trademark infringement is generally frowned upon. Just ask the Catholics vs. Convicts guys at Notre Dame.
Hey, Gambit sells nothing but the finest in low quality over priced merchandise. Truth in advertising.
And his delivery service isn’t Amazon.....it’s the more environmentally friendly Pony Express!
Have to wonder if the Pitt fans making fun of UCF for “claiming” a National title realize that 8 of Pitt’s “9” were claimed the same way
OK, just to keep this thread alive. Today there is a thread on the nicest stadiums with the obvious negative comments re: the Beav (yea, it's ugly and needs upgrading) but the kicker is that a handful of them claim Franklin Field as one they would want on their campus. We played Temple there, what 15 + years ago? That place felt unsafe. It was like playing in the Colosseum...and not the one in LA.
Hard to believe that being bored I looked at the Lair and the first thread that caught my eye was one that contained nothing but facts. There really are a few pitt alums/fans that recognize the reality of the ACC. But I'm sure a few delusioned pitters will try and tear this poster a new butt after they work up the nerve.....

I think the ones that really hurt were Maryland 63 Syracuse 20, West Virginia 44 NC State 27, Kansas 48 BC 24, Temple 24 Georgia Tech 2, and Citadel 27 Georgia Tech 24. Those were losses, sometimes by wide margins, to mediocre and even bad teams.
No kidding...........

I like it when they tear apart our OOC schedule without giving a second thought to the fact that THEY represent 1/3 of said schedule for the last 4 seasons.
Plus the fact that Pitt is on the schedule means that PSU can't put a marquee opponent there.
Unfortunately it looks like Pitt may be a more formidable opponent than next year's marquee team.
That's not saying much, but it's not just about the quality of the opponent. I'm thrilled to be able to see PSU play in Blacksburg. Seeing their beautiful campus, enjoying their stadium traditions. I'm sure the fans will be awesome too. It's the exact opposite of an away game at Pitt.
It will be a welcome change, but I used to work A LOT of Va Tech fans/alum. It will be a different kind of hate. At that time at least, they were the type of fans that were born on 3rd base and pretended they hit a triple. It is a very nice town and campus. Never been in the stadium, but it looks cool on the outside with a great game day atmosphere.
Hard to believe as close as the two schools are, they’ve never played each other.
My son - current sophomore in PSU Engineering - really wants to go there to experience "Enter Sandman." Based on lsat two years, he's also really glad he chose PSU over VT and some cash!
I’ve worked with many VT grads over the years, they’ve all been really sharp and decent people.
I worked M-F in Roanoke VA for 20 months years ago and for the first 6 months I had to drive every other week, right past Blacksburg. I've always wanted to go to a game there so next year may be the time to do it.
And I believe this is exactly the type of OOC team that many PSU fans will appreciate. A college town, not too far, just a great venue for a trip to an away game to see a game that is out of the ordinary. A great choice by PSU to pursue and get a series going.
About the only better set up would be to play this game towards the end of October when the leaves are turning down there which would make the drive that much more enjoyable......

Nothing like stepping over a human turd on Pitts beautiful campus!
It's a great game experience and loud for its size for sure. Tailgating is okay but it's all over the place and on a lot of parking lots. It will be packed so it's like being in a sardine can and gets ungodly hot in the early season.
Well , to be accurate, the kid never said they can “beat anyone in the country”.
