Southern Methodist at Pittsburgh (01/07/2012)

Hilarious..sounds like DW needs a girl

cappingvet - I disagree...SMU is no WVU, or Cinci, or Louisville or even Syracuse...

Graham's departure along with the firings from last year have impacted this team...But, I think the us against the world mentality will be prevalent...as i said before, Steele picked Pitt to win the Big East (certainly an off year for the BE).  There must be talent there...SMU is a nice story and Jones a great coach...but, I believe Pitt is hungry and with a month to prepare for the run and shoot, Pitt will be ready...

CappingVet   glad to see thair are still some older flokes on here i rember cashing back then   lol  i guess imm just old capdout  

Time for DOG to BARK and rebound back SMU all the way.

SMU is the play here.

sorry but I will have to agree with this dude.  Either way GL to all whatever you decided to play.

Another idiot post.  You aren't just an idiot but a broke idiot if you go against Sharp's picks every time.  At least he gives insight on games.  All you are is someone who can't think for themselves.  great post, very informative.  

I go with Pitt.  The big east is not a great conference, but they do play a little defense.  Conference USA plays no defense.  I am a SMU fan and i've watched them play all year.  They are not a very tough team when they get hit in the mouth which i think pitt will do.  Taking Pitt large laying the chalk

PITT -3

Super Extra Large!

  SHARP 

Some key points indicate Pittsburgh will hold a solid edge in this game. SMU had the worst turnover margin in the nation, as the Mustang defense intercepted just 5 passes and couldn't offset the 31 total turnovers committed by the offense. Pittsburgh's defense holds a distinct edge, as the Panthers gave up four fewer points per game and 18 fewer yds. per game vs. TGS-rated teams, despite playing a significantly tougher schedule than the Ponies. The Pitt edge extends to the special teams, where SMU's punt unit and kickoff return teams rank 109th and 96th this season. The Panthers will apply pressure on McDermott, as Pitt ranked 4th in sacks, led by soph DE Aaron Donald with 10 and sr. OLB Brandon Lindsey with 8½. The Mustangs are less-likely to exploit Pittsburgh's poor pass protection, as their top pass rusher, DE Taylor Thompson, had just 1 sack in the last 7 games. Pitt's jr. PK Kevin Harper (made 19 of his last 26 FGs), rates an edge over either SMU kicker, walk-on Chase Hover, who's iffy after recovering from a late-season bout with mono, or RS frosh Mike Loftus, who's listed as the starter but hasn't yet made a field goal in college   

PITT = WIN
