[Editor’s Note: Blogger was acting up a bit yesterday. I just noticed that an entire post never made it. Annoying, because I had already deleted the file from my temp folder without realizing it. Essentially reconstructed and updated.]

Darrelle Revis has had a good few days. His interception helped Pitt win the Backyard Brawl, along with an excellent punt return on his first try this year, and it looks like he may get some more opportunities. Now he has also been named to the second team Freshman All-American squad by Rivals.com.

Josh Cummings won his second Big East Special Teams Player of the Week honors for going 3 for 4 on field goals and making the lone extra point attempt.

Also worth mentioning and giving much credit and love to is Diamond Ferri of Syracuse, who won both the Offensive and Defensive Player of the Week honors in the Big East. Ferri clearly earned it in leading Syracuse over BC. And of course knocking BC out of the BCS and sending Pitt.

Pitt’s game notes are available here (PDF). Nothing really jumps out from them. They contain a painful reminder of the 2001 USF game with the box score. And of course, the “Tale of the Tape.”

Definitely not much of a passing team, as they average more rushing yards than in the air. Also, they seem to turn the ball over a lot.
