DEJAN KOVACEVIC, DK ON PITTSBURGH SPORTS Getting ready for kickoff … Game: Pitt vs. Delaware, season opener, 12:02 p.m., Heinz Field TV, radio: ESPN3, 93.7 The Fan Online: Game Tracker / Multimedia / Official media notes
Go Pitt! Beat Joe Flacco’s alma mater! (Wonder if he gave them any money?).
Tyler Boyd, kids. Pure magic.
It would appear these Hens are ill-prepared for either Boyd or James Conner. Just like that, it’s 7-0 Pitt, four plays, 41 yards, 1:32.
Oh, my. David Durham registers 11-yard sack but flagged for unsportsmanlike for doing that brush-off-shoulder gesture. Lighten up, ref.
And there’s Boyd again, diving for 12-yard TD catch. Reach of a pass by Voytik, but 23 makes it look right on target. It’s 14-0.
Surprised at Pitt’s dominant start.
We’re going to win the ACC !!!! Too knee jerk? They look good so far, though. So does Navy against OSU
Voytik is NOT hurt, by the way. This is by design, going with Trey here for a different look. At least that’s the word up here.
Thanks DK. At the game and don’t have a radio to hear what’s up.
Ps. I loved the site before but this real time interaction while at the game is….well, it’s well worth the subscription.
Great. Boyd hurt. Hope he didn’t break a bone in his hand against these chickens.
Looked like he was in real pain. Hopefully just a jam.
Boyd escorted into locker room, with athletic trainer holding his left hand. Doesn’t look good. Visible pain. I think it was a finger.
Visibly the best player on the field. Huge loss. Hope for the best
S*IT.
Quite a different opener than last season.
According to the team, it’s a dislocated finger on the left hand. Doesn’t sound terribly serious, but we’ll see.
Ok, so will we, as a group, say “It’s only Delaware” or will we say “This is what Pitt is supposed to do in games they are supposed to win?” Or something like that. I don’t think they will run away with the division, but I do prefer the latter. Good win, bad injury.
Pitt was expected to get an easy win today. Blowing out Delaware 62-0 goes well beyond that. Big time win for Panthers.
