I’m sorry to be so late with this piece.

Here is where your log your official Pitt vs Iowa game predictions… winner, score and if you feel like it why.

Here’s mine….

I think this is the game Peterman cements the starting role going into the ACC season. He throws for two TD and our run game kicks in for two more.

Pitt 27 – Iowa 24

Have relatives in town and off to DC for touristy stuff, will check in later.

Depending on your cable, there are secondary BTN channels. Comcast in PGH has 470 to 473 I think.

At the bar watching Central Mich tie Syracuse in the waning seconds. Got that feeling in the Pitt of my stomach as I’ve seen Pitt blow games too many times in similar fashion over the years. Talk about Pavlov’s dog.

Comment by Iron Duke 09.19.15 @ 2:51 pm

@UPITT, look around. I just have the regular Verizon FIOS sports package, I have the BTN, and further up the channel dial is another BTN channel, BTN2???

Anyhow, one has PSU-Rutgers, the other
Pitt-Iowa.

I don’t pay extra, it just comes with the mostly 500 channels of crap they give me.

Hope you have it.

Comment by Dan 09.19.15 @ 3:04 pm

Watched Duke – NW game, talk about Fred Flintstone football. Could have been played in 1918 .

Comment by Spindler's Spirit 09.19.15 @ 3:29 pm

Dan – Upitt may have only 1 BTN channel. I bought the sports package with charter but the package only comes with 1 BTN network – no alternate channel like with the SEC channel.

Here’s the link to BTN

link to btn.com see if you have on tv or can watch online.

Game thread , please!

Comment by Oklahomeboy 09.19.15 @ 3:40 pm

Sorry link doesn’t work. Let’s try again

Comment by PITT-cocks Fan 09.19.15 @ 3:43 pm

@Pitt-cocks Fan, that could be very true.

@UPITT, another alternative, BTN has a
BTN TO GO app on your smart phone. Free app.

If you don’t mind watching on your phone???

As a last resort, actually not bad, have done it before, the picture is the best I have out of all the devices.

Or at least you can check in.

I found it to be good, when I was on the couch with another game on the tube.

Watch the drives, when they go commercial I shut it off, turn it back on.

Anyhow, not ideal, but if your Jonesin’ for
Pitt???

Comment by Dan 09.19.15 @ 4:12 pm

A notre dame db just blew out a knee celebrating a play. Idiot

Comment by Nick 09.19.15 @ 4:17 pm

Well no visiting fan goes home saying wow what a beautiful campus. They may ask about that phallic symbol in the distance from Heinz. They will probably have more to say about the Steelers than anything else.

this will help improve the atmosphere. make it much less family friendly though unless served only in Yinzer drinking only areas

Comment by TX Panther 09.19.15 @ 4:36 pm

Pitt is not looking into an on campus stadium. Hell, Barnes is cleaning up Pederson pile and that will take a while.

Comment by Tony77019 09.19.15 @ 4:39 pm

Are we doing the Goody Bar Man uni’s again today.

God I hate those things….remind me of fat calved Tiny.

Comment by Emel 09.19.15 @ 4:45 pm

not now since theres the task of uniting a fractured fan base and winning over boosters. But it is part of his 10-15 year plan. Need a home when the Stillers build their 80k domed stadium in Washington County come 2030. Unless Pitt wants to move their campus as well.

Comment by TX Panther 09.19.15 @ 4:48 pm

Plus the Pedo’s are known to wear all white away from Creepy Valley. Why on earth do we want to emulate those pervs.

The blackheartgoldpants site was a hoot.

Comment by Emel 09.19.15 @ 4:49 pm

Why can’t these well paid clowns get this right.

It’s so simple !

We need like 50,000 emails with that pic attached sent to Barnes.

Surely he would see the light !!!

Why do these things look like too much detergent was used in washing them.

With today’s great colors available on HDTV sets, you want to use very vibrant and brilliant colors.

Not some washed out looking drab blue and even more washed out looking semblance of gold.

Comment by Emel 09.19.15 @ 4:57 pm

Tx Panther – I have been to 5 South Carolina away games. Traveled with other Gamecocks. Only seen one campus – Ole’ Miss.

That was due to how they tailgate at the Grove. Free parking on campus but can only tailgate at the Grove.

All others stadiums were on the edge of campus with plenty of parking in open fields or pay lots.

BTW – South Carolina stadium is off campus, bused students, no bars nearby & only a Bojangles & Waffle House for dining options.

Comment by PITT-cocks Fan 09.19.15 @ 4:58 pm

A frighteningly easy 24-13 win for Pitt.

Comment by CA-Yinzer 09.19.15 @ 4:59 pm

Ok my uni color rant is over. It’s safe to come back out.

Let’s Go Pitt !

Comment by Emel 09.19.15 @ 5:00 pm

edge of campus is fine. Heinz is beyond the edge. In all my travels, I dont recall one campus I havent seen when attending a game…except Pitt’s of course long after I had graduated.

And we need to wear blue and gold. White is too much like the Klan, like the Pedo, like a hospital, like a wedding.

Comment by TX Panther 09.19.15 @ 5:06 pm

If you are a Comcast Xfinity customer the Pitt game will be shown on channel 470.

Comment by Fred filopek 09.19.15 @ 5:15 pm

Notre Dame not having much of a problem shutting down Georgia Tech’s option.

16-7 late 3rd

If the hoops teams keeps trending down, nobody will be going to the Pete. We can tear that down and rebuild a new Pitt stadium there. Where it should have been in the first place !

Comment by Emel 09.19.15 @ 5:17 pm

Forever will be known as:

Cornhole’s Folly

Comment by Emel 09.19.15 @ 5:18 pm

Yea I was at Williams-Bryce a couple times…for a Pitt game one time..when Chris Doleman reeked havoc on the Gamecocks.

That stadium is around nothing. Bizarre area, guess the land was next to nothing when they purchased it.

Good game atmosphere though !

Comment by Emel 09.19.15 @ 5:22 pm

Ohio Fake has their hands full with a MAC team. 35 point favorites…up by 7 midway thru 4th

Comment by Emel 09.19.15 @ 5:29 pm

Emel – Great game atmosphere. The school is spending money to make it better. Traded swamp land they owned to the state for 60 acres across from stadium. Used 40 acres for parking/family fun zone & used the other 20 for practice football practice fields & indoor practice facilities.

This year, they removed all parking from around stadium & put in grass, walkways trees/palms & a statue of the gamecocks Heisman winner.

Wasn’t living in So Car when Pitt played here.

BTW – the weight training facilities are in the stadium.

Comment by PITT-cocks Fan 09.19.15 @ 5:35 pm

Yea don’t mention him. Hugh should have got it that year.

Sounds like the improvements will be nice. I use to pass it on the Interstate 77 (i guess) on the way down to Charleston (I-26) and further points south (Florida).

Comment by TX Panther 09.19.15 @ 5:57 pm

Temple almost pulled a Pitt or would it be a Temple.

After Temple’s biggest win EVER last week against the Pedo’s.

They almost lost to umass, but the Powerful Owls kick a FG with 12 seconds to go to win 25-23.

Yea baby !

Comment by Emel 09.19.15 @ 5:59 pm

Most all of the score predictions are taken. I didn’t consider the losing predictions because we have two ways of predicting. The first is with our heart and the second are all the lists of losing scores.

My prediction is 17-16 in our favor. The defensive backs show up. Iowa will use some trickeration. Beatherd makes some big plays but both offenses struggle in the red zone. I have to say that to stay with my low score prediction. Pitt punter and cover team needs to be on their A+ game. Pitt is 1-0 for games played on 09/19/15.

Comment by dhuffdaddy 09.19.15 @ 6:45 pm

Should be able to see the game here:

Looks like the ACC is 3-1 against the overrated B1G so far today going into our game.

Comment by Jackagain 09.19.15 @ 7:02 pm

Well, Dan 72, you know what that means, God damn it. Chivis!

Comment by Dr. Tom 09.19.15 @ 7:18 pm

Wrote email to Chris to resolve question / no absolute resolution/answer below.

Chris Dokish Re: College football QB (Do College QB have options on pass plays or specific receivers)
They do look for secondary options but they’re not pros so they don’t do it very well. Even a lot of pros aren’t great it at.
Does anyone know if Quadree is hurt. He gained 5 yards per carry against Iowa and in my opinion is far ahead of the other two backs.
I think we can be competitive with him if the O line starts to gel
