It was now time to jump on the Pitt Panthers after an abysmal showing against SMU Saturday night. It was ugly. Did it help having the lower expectations going into the season? Pitt got exposed and in a big way. The Panthers looked shell shocked and played like it. A month ago, the questions were about how Pitt would keep Eli Holstein or Kade Bell around – now that doesn’t seem like much of a worry. The QB looked tentative and the scheme didn’t work. Things were bad for everyone on Saturday – even Bill Hillgrove lost his spotter board. What did we learn most about Pitt on Saturday night? Multiple heckling situations Saturday in State College.
