We have Selvie, McClain, and Mompremeir out(3 of our top 5 defenders) and a great back in McCoy gets 140 yards, and Pitt averages less than 4ypc and suddenly we can't stop the run? Assinine.Now Roberts was exposed, so we do have some problems in the secondary, which hopefully will be addressed in the bye week.I think when the season is over we will see that Pitt is a darn good team, and maybe that loss wasn't as bas as everyone thinks. Pitt ran the frickin "How to beat USF" Playbook and ran it to perfection. They knew we were banged up in the front 7 and that Roberts was suspect. Pound the run and attack Roberts in man situations. Keep us off balance w draws, shovel passes, and screens. Great gameplan.I still think USF is very good football team. We finish 9-3 at worst.

But I wouldn't call us average! I think average is pretty generous and pretty honest.3 of the teams we played were in the bottom 9 in the nation in offense, so I would hope we would be ranked that high.
