Well, here's the answer to the question, "Who's the last guy to retire a Pirate?"

Maybe Pitt can play Akron and have Luke Getsy beat them in a bowl game. That would be a capper to a good season.

If Pitt plays in a bowl game on January 7th in Toronto against a MAC team, and a tree falls in the woods with no one around...does either make a sound?

It will be an utter embarrassment if Pitt plays in that game. It's one thing to play in a crap bowl between DEC 26-31 b/c there are so many damn bowl games that no one really notices.

However, the Panthers will have the "spotlight" all to themselves on JAN 7.

Perhaps they'll present the entire team with a scarlet "I" to wear on their letter jackets in the offseason.

With all the popularity of Borat, can they be renamed the Pittsburgh Sexy Time Xplosion?

I assume all of this Pitt bowl talk is contingent upon the fact that we will infact beat UConn because we're not beating WVU or the 'Ville

And even those stupid police on horses in Canada wouldn't let a team who lost their last 5 games into their bowl.
