Especially when they win a big game the previous week.
Hopefully they settle down second half but PITT usually loses games like this AT HOME every damn year.

They went from FCS powerhouse to FBS independent to Big East member, Big East champ and BCS bowl heights. Fast forward a decade later and now they are an independent and about to go winless.

just putting it out there
NC losing to UVA
and would love to see Clemson lose to South Carolina but that is asking for too much.

62. "D.J. Uiagalelei watch yet?" In response to Reply # 0
it's been three games and he's looked terrible
averaging 116 TOTAL yards of offense per game and he has scored exactly one TD so far
not sure how you can be completing less than 63% of your passes when you are averaging under 6 YPA in college, where they let you block anybody within 10 yards of the LOS
Clemson's offense as a whole looks downgraded, but you are the five-star, can't-miss trigger man
65. "My nephew got some real playing time for Stanford tonight…" In response to Reply # 0 Sat Sep-18-21 11:09 PM by soulfunk
His name is Jaden Slocum - he’s a true freshman corner, had offers from Michigan, Notre Dame, Alabama, Clemson, FSU, Florida, Georgia, USC, MSU, and a ton of other schools. He enrolled early at Stanford earlier this year. Because of the pandemic he missed out on taking most of his recruiting visits (and for some reason the scouting sites never updated his 3 star ranking even though he had all those P5 scholarship offers.)
Jaden got playing time last week in the USC game on special teams, but today he played the entire second half at corner.
It’s surreal seeing him out there. He was two years old watching football with my dad (his grandfather) and was able to follow the action, and started running “plays” with us in the living room. He’s been playing organized football since he was 3 years old so he’s living out his dream right now. Got straight A’s in his first semester at Stanford too.
So yeah…I have a Pac12 team to root for right along with Michigan.
70. "Yep - Jaden and Ari Patu were the first this year. " In response to Reply # 66
It was crazy because of the pandemic. Jaden graduated high school early in December but had been fully virtual. Then when he enrolled at Stanford early he moved from Georgia all the way to Cali, just to still be going to school virtually and with very few people on campus.
On top of that, because Stanford had never brought in early enrollees their cadence during spring ball is different from other teams. Instead of being the start to a new season they typically build on what the last season was - it’s assumed that the players already know the playbook and such. AND they moved him from free safety to corner, which he never played in high school. He’s used to playing center field, sitting back and reacting to what the offense does which is totally different from playing man to man coverage on an an island with a WR. But he’s tall - 6’2” and really fast so corner is where he has the most upside.
Given all that I didn’t think he’d be getting playing time as a true freshman, but they’ve had a couple injuries to DBs so he made his way into the rotation.

71. "Yeah - gotta love Shaw. Jaden’s top three schools were" In response to Reply # 67
Stanford, Michigan, and Notre Dame. Even as a Michigan alumn who would have LOVED having him here in Ann Arbor with me, I’m thrilled he’s playing for Shaw.

73. "Its wild watching my friends kids play in college or the NFL" In response to Reply # 65
really shows my age too.
I have a friend who’s son has already played 8 years and retired already.. and my friend is like 5 years older than me.
and my kids are 4 and 6.
With this type of playing time early he has a good shot an an NFL roster based on all those schools that recruited him.
Congrats!!!

74. "Nice! A former student and player of mine starts for PSU. " In response to Reply # 65
Just on ST’s, but he’s always the first one down for punts and kicks. #37 for PSU. He’s actually one of the fastest players in all of CFB, but hasn’t been able to stick at any one position.
Sounds like you’re nephew is off to a great start and chose a great program and coach to play for. Pretty surreal when it’s your own family too.
