The Loyal Sons

Welcome back to The Loyal Sons podcast (@TheLoyalSons): a safe, sun-shiny place for your 10-win Pitt Football fix.

0:50 - 25:21 - Syracuse Recap. We are pleased with our performance and satisfied with the outcome. Pitt’s stingy defense and conservative game plan secure a historic 10th regular season win, cost Syracuse’s OC his job, and force the best Sean Tucker tweet of the year.
25:36 - 37:46 - Heisman Watch. Bryce Young’s poor performance in the Iron Bowl and CJ Stroud’s loss to Michigan have reopened to door for Kenny Pickett. What needs to happen on Championship Weekend for Kenny to walk away with the hardware on December 11?
38:05 - 51:05 - Around the NCAA. An absolutely batshit bonkers weekend+ in college football can’t go unmentioned. Upsets, coaching changes, transfers, and more.
51:27 - 1:18:11 - Interview w/ EJ Borghetti. Pitt’s Executive Assistant Athletic Director stops by the show to discuss Pitt’s national recognition, program culture, and turning his internet trolls into allies. Special guest appearance by Conner Borghetti.
1:18:36 - 1:57:40 - Interview w/ Conor O’Neill. We speak with the Publisher of Wake Forest’s Rivals site, “Deacons Illustrated”. Conor explains Wake’s delayed RPO and why it works, his expectations for Saturday’s matchup, and how surprised we both are to be here. More importantly, we beg like dogs for him to use his Heisman vote on Kenny Pickett.
1:54:54 - 2:11:26 - Predictions. The game we’ve all been waiting for. The Loyal Sons have some ideas for how Pitt can leave Charlotte with a trophy. Please win.

Hail, Loyal Sons of Pittsburgh.
