  1. I’m looking at that cheerleader’s legs and wondering, “Is that a guy?”

  2. nope just a typical northern chick. Just kiddin for a change. But I love those Pitt uniforms. Wish they would go back to those colors and style. There’s something to be said for tradition.

  3. I didn’t realize that Pitt went from 1-10 in 1972 to 12-0 and the MNC in 1976. If that’s not the greatest turnaround in college football history I don’t know what is. I think Johnny Majors left after that year, but Jackie Sherrill came in and kept the Panthers at the forefront of the college football world for the next six or seven years.

  4. TD was something to see. A special talent indeed. One of the few that also excelled at the next level with the same flair.
