We're lucky we didn't finish 2. We would've been further embarrassed under a bigger microscope.

3 posts...all ripping on UC. Great start.

I was ripping Mick, not UC. Big difference.

And you wouldn't find someone cheering louder for that 2009 team at Pitt than me. But I knew what our fate was in the Sugar Bowl even before the first snap. Maybe the newbie CFB fans in this forum, at the time, weren't aware of just how badly we were outmatched.

How wise of you to forsee our downfall. Only the most astute are capable of realizing that 2009 Florida, with Urban Meyer in his last game and Tim Tebow as well, coupled with over 20 NFL players and fresh off a loss to Alabama, was good.

And our team had a diminished staff, my understanding from a few player's parents down in NOLO was practices were often disorganized, little consistency, didn't seem like staff wanted to be there. Honestly the bowl prep for that game sounded like a complete disaster.
