The Lions' Pride

Phila, I like your enthusiasm, but don't you think you are getting carried away? I could be wrong since I was not at the game. What I saw on TV was completely the opposite.

Hilarious coming from the guy who just called another coach, one who has an outstanding reputation among PSU fans, a POS.

+1,000,000... Texas is the worst PSU fan on this board. He rips on other poster and then goes and kisses the sPitt board posters asses. No true PSU fan would do that. Pitt is the ENEMY and any real PSU fan would know that!

Bingo.

If you rewatch the game the camera is on Fitz almost the entire time that Morris is down. You can see the point he sees OB on the field and starts running on the field as well yelling at a ref "flag his ass, flag his ass" then something to the affect of "he can't come over here like that." Then as he's going back to his sideline he winks at one of his guys, and his team fed on it.

I really don't have a problem with any of what I saw. OB was giving the refs hell and so was Fitz. Both competitors in the middle of the game.

I didn't see anything on TV about them mocking fans. That would be over the top for me.

Good, positive resonse.

That particular post is disturbing and disgusting, but every fanbase has those crazies who take things way too far. I also don't communicate with owt much on their board.

I don't go over there that often, and when I do its usually to congratulate them. I don't mind Pitt, and I think its better for PSU when there is a competitive natural rival. I don't hate Pitt until they give me a reason to. One disgusting post by some message board crazy isn't a reason to hate a school.

Try living in Western PA. Just trust us when we say they are the most classless, jerkoffs in all of sports.

But go ahead and be buddy-buddy with them as the nutjobs on that board are even worse than the general Pitt fan that I run into, who are still terrible.

Carpetbagger?

You're getting things a little confused Yankee.

Actually no, carpetbagger while traditionally used as term against northerners who moved south during reconstruction may also be used as someone who moves into an area and lives there for a short amount of time and acts like its always been their home, often running for political office.

Sit on west side and can corroborate what philly said.......suprised and little diasppointed in what i saw out of NW but realize the day and age we are in where there is little class left anywhere in college football.........PSU is no different and has had their own player antics!

I was in the West stands Row 25 WF; and saw the player with outstretched arms facing the stands egging the fans on to get louder. And boy did we ever! Turning point of the game is when BOB woke up the entire stadium when he walked out onto the field and gave the officials holy hell over the PI call (worst call by a B1G official in a PSU game all year).

After that the entire crowd was behind PSU the rest of the game. I've been a season Ticket holder for 20 years. Since the last expansion we've had some memorable games, Notre Dame, OSU-2003, Nebraska-2005, where we had 110,000 in attendance making lots of noise. But I've never been in Beaver Stadium with a noisier crowd than what we had on Saturday. And that crowd was 14,000 less than the aforementioned sellouts!

In fact the usually listless West Stands, in my section, were as rowdy as could be. For a section that sits thru most of the game, we were on our feet for almost the entire 4th QTR.
That was a really exciting game/environment to witness. One of the best in my 20 years.

I was disappointed to rewatch the telivised game, when BOB was raking the officials over the bad call, the camera was on Fitz the entire time, with commentators bloviating over Fitz, chance to go 6-0 for first time in 50 years, blah, blah, blah. The cameras missed the turning point of that game. BOB got the fans to personally put some skin in the game, and NWU never stood a chance after that.

I was also disappointed to see McMoxie do the "Discount double-check" meneuver in the end zone after he scored the decisive TD. He's too cocky for his own good sometimes. That stunt could have cost us 15 if the officials see it.

Otherwise a great win for this team. A milstone victory over a ranked opponnent. And a perfect segue into the bye week.

WE ARE....

This.

It' wasn't for us, it's for the teams they play the rest of the season.
