Pitt suffered an epic meltdown blowing a 24-14 lead in the 4th quarter to arch rival West Virginia. This after tanking the 2nd half of last year losing their final 6 games. Pat Narduzzi may be feeling the heat, as we look at how Pitt fans reacted to the trainwreck finish. #pitt O grades vs …

The Jackets have had big wins under Brent Key against even higher-ranked teams, but this is a signature win. Those wins …

Just a quick post tonight. While the Backyard Brawl will take a short break from 2026-2028, good for Pitt and West Virginia keeping this intense rivalry alive starting in 2029 and going through 2036. Realignment has wrecked too many rivalries, ending up with non sensical and traditionless matchups replacing them. Pitt and West Virginia announce …

Well, if you thought it wasn’t going to happen buckle up, because more statements are pointing to the Big 10 going to an unequal revenue share. The Washington AD alluded to it back in the summer.

Good afternoon, Atlantic Coast Conference fans. I made the right decision last night to see my favorite band, Dream Theater, live in concert rather than staying home and watching the Virginia Tech/Vanderbilt football game. My friend, @TalkinACCSports, chronicled that game here. Jeff is right, of course. It does seem like the end is near for …
