Pitt tops Penn State ... and it was glorious

Penn State had it won.”

This was the very first comment I heard as I exited the stadium, briefly turning to admire the blue and white jersey in its splendor, to begin the long walk back to my car downtown (actually, more like uptown since I was near the Consol Center - and yes, my legs are sore).

Pitt eeked out a 42-39 win over rival Penn State on Saturday to the delight of the mostly pro-Panthers crowd. If I had to estimate at a split, I’d say something like 70-30 Pitt fans.
