YSU had complete control of the game. The penguins are back

[Drblankstare]

Great job Guins, way to represent. Also that was an *** whooping, way to go.

[bearsfan5]

Congratulations to Youngstown State on a great win! I'm glad that we don't have to play you this year xhurrayx

[UNH_Alum_In_CT]

Fabulous game 'Guins!!!!! Tremendous performance by your OL during the portions of the game I watched!! Absolutely nothing flukey about this win, YSU dominated!!

[SpeedkingATL]

Nice win Youngstown. Congrats.

[Gil Dobie]

Great Job YSU

[ysubigred]

Thanks to all!! Really feel's good to open a season with a "W" xsalutex It's been 5 years but this year by far was the easiest team we played. The MVFC looks great except for WIU, and SIU but I know that they are proud programs and won't be down for long xthumbsupx Should be one hell of a year!!


Congrats to all the MVFC teams and let's hope for a healthy year for all xsmileyclapx

[PantherRob82]

MSU sucks again.

[Twentysix]

Good job conference brother.

[RabidRabbit]

Is Big Least still considered one of the BCS leagues? Regardless, NICE FBS win 'Guins!

[MSUBear42]

MSU sucks again.

Clearly...

[theasushow]

awesome job 'guins.

[penguinpower]

Good game by YSU. They clearly dominated Pitt the entire game. They never trailed. They are probably a top 10 in the FCS and have a shot at the title this year.

[Paladin1aa]

Great win by the Guins. This looks to be a special season.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

I think it's very possible that Temple is the best team in PA! We'll get our shot against pitt and psu as the year goes on.

[danefan]

Great win for YSU.

We have our work cut out for us in two weeks.

[blueballs]

Congratulations to Youngstown for a huge and convincing win!!!

Youngstown is one of the legendary programs in this division and the division nationally is better when Youngstown is a contender. Welcome back and well done!!!

[McNeese72]

Congrats to the Guins and the Guin fans. Very impressive win.

I think the Guins are definitely back.

[wmmii]

Good to see you all back, keep up the effort!

[ODUsmitty]

Congratulations to YSU. When a 1-AA school goes up against a BCS squad, we are all fans.

Well done!

[grayghost06]

Outstanding effort 'Guins!

[Twentysix]

YSU's stock shot up in my poll they went from being a top 10 team to the #2 team. We shall see if they can hold onto that spot throughout the season.

[WrenFGun]

Rightfully so! I'm presumptive they took this one in Heinz, and when I went two years ago, that was a tough place to play. Congrats to YSU.

[penguinpower]

It was at Heinz field. What was amazing is that the game didn't even seem close. The Penguins completely controlled the game from start to finish. As a matter of fact, the last drive of the game was a 6 minute 11 play drive to run the clock out and Youngstown ran the ball every single play and Pitt couldn't stop them. YSU then went into victory formation and kneeled on it to run the last 1:35 off the clock. YSU was close to scoring again and I dont doubt that they could have scored again.

Congrats to YSU. Hopefully Coach Wolford will share the film with Coach Dickerson at Gardner-Webb. We play Pitt in Week 4. Any pointers from the Penguins who attended on good joints for food and brew?

Go Runnin' Bulldogs!

Sounds a lot like ndsu/minnesota last year. Hopefully a sign of big (but not too big:D) things to come.

[ysubigred]

Clearly...

xprayx PLEASE BEAT LOUISVILLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! xthumbsupx

[Go Bison]

Great win for YSU! The NDSU beat writer has Youngstown State as #1 in his poll.

[caribbeanhen]

hopefully Delaware will be up to the task in 2014..... great win Penguins

[Engineer86]

I do not think it changes the outcome based on what I have read, but I saw this in the local paper. I do not know if any of these six would have even played, but something was up with Pitt this weekend.

Youngstown was a lot faster and a lot more physical. I am not sure it would have made a difference. Youngstown forced 2 turnovers and stopped them on a 4th and 1 and had only 1 penalty the entire game. The QB wasn't even touched and they were rushed.

[Mountaineer]

Was cheering for you guys and glad you got it done. Have liked the Guins since the visit to Boone in '06. xthumbsupx

I was there in 2006 and that team you had when Armanti Edwards was a freshman was simply outstanding. I was amazed by your speed at the time. I think the Penguins are just as fast this year. They made Pitt look slow. Really physical too.

The Rock is a nice place, reminds me of the Ice Castle. I like how the tailgating lot is above the stadium too. Only place I've ever seen like that. People were really nice too.

I like this video that linked from it penguinpower. The goings on in the YSU area is fun to watch

The description is great too:

Youngstown State completes a huge upset that costs the University of Pittsburgh $400,000

[cbarrier90]

Pitt currently doing its best to make this victory not look like that much of an upset. My goodness, they look bad.

[frozennorth]

um, wow.


might have to add pitt to the kansas/colorado/maryland/indiana crew of bcs programs that are currently cascading trainwrecks.


edit: stats really don't look so bad, how is pitt getting crushed like this?

Similar score. 31-17 vs 34-10 Pitt is just not that good this year. Similar statistically in the box score, except YSU held the ball for much longer.

[seantaylor]

This game was never close.

[penguinpower]

This game was never close.

Agree that the game was never close, however, Pitt had a TD called back on a penalty and had a TD intercepted in the end zone. Not sure what to make of YSU's win, however, they are very good this year. Pitt looks out of shape physically.

[Laker]

Cincy scores on the first play from scrimmage and put Pitt in the hole right away. Pitt has a TD called back, then throws a pick. At the end of the first half they could have scored again and stupidly run out of time. They have a heck of a running back but just looked disjointed all night. They are a team in trouble. The ACC couldn't have been happy watching that game.

Still it doesn't take anything away from Youngstown.

[bluehenbillk]

Worst Pitt team I've ever seen....

Pitt may not win 2 games this year

It's up there with the 1996 Johnny Majors edition.....

Worst Pitt team I've ever seen....

Bad line play.
Bad quarterback (3rd year!)
Bad coaching.

A trifecta.

Remaining games:
vs. (15) Virginia Tech
vs. Gardner Webb
@ Syracuse
vs. (23) Louisville
@ Buffalo
vs. Temple
@ (22) Notre Dame
@ UConn
vs. Rutgers
@ USF

Gardner-Webb and Temple look to be their (possible) winning games of the year, but this could be a one-win season, too.

buffalo as well should be winnable, possibly rutgers.

lololol

pitt is up 21-3 on vtech.


lololol IF-- they can hang on and win, this might be the one victory that the great prognosticator CLENZ foresaw them winning for the entire season.--one thing is for certain @ the moment Va. Tech(#13) is the HIGHEST ranked team on their schedule this season!
