 What's next?
There's a silver lining, here people.
Lets take some joy for a moment and remind ourselves that while Pitt won the battle, they've continually lost the war and they couldn't smell a bowl game even if it were played in the Petersen Events Center.
Wannstedt got a contract extension, which means we can look forward to a bad Pitt team until 2012.
Moving forward, our beloved 'eers won the Big East title outright and will be playing in a BCS bowl. Probably the Orange Bowl vs. Virginia Tech, another great rivalry.
We've got a lot of time off between now and the bowl game, so try not to think about last night's "nightmare" (as Coach Rod put it) and look forward to a prestigious bowl appearance and another opportunity to show that the 'eers don't quit.
Upsetting VT would go a long way into cementing our status at the end of the year and prepare us for a high preseason ranking next year.
Our team will be older, stronger, wiser and better prepared for the National Title hunt. And remember, Pitt will still eat shit. |
