Cincinatti/Pitt 2009 BE Champ Game on ESPN Classic Now

[Riddickulous]

7-10 PM EST.

Get a good look at the offense Brian Kelly runs. They fought back and won in a great game.

Saw it last night. Fun game. Many turnovers, penalties, and mistakes. Great comeback by Cinci.

Watching this game makes me fear Jonathan Baldwin. A lot.

Baldwin... big play receiver benefiting from a solid running attack and shorter, slower and weaker competition. I'm interested to see if we can stop him better this year. If our run defense is as good as I think it should be then we can give safety help over the top and limit his ability to exploit us vertically.

He is fairly good. Dion Lewis is a monster and we may have some trouble stopping him, thus giving Baldwin opportunities.

Two more things I've noticed:

1. Brian Kelly is going to throttle people that make mistakes. Kicker misses the field goal at the end of the half and he was chewing him out.

2. There isn't a chance in hell Tony Pike beats Jimmy Clausen out for the QB job at Carolina. If he's pressured he's garbage.

Hahaha yeah I was just thinking the exact same things. The fact that Pike looked good in BK's system should mean Crist demolishes teams. And what he said to the reporter after the kicker missed the 55 yarder was classic "no excuses" BK. If you say you can do it, then do it. If you can't, sit your butt down on the bench.

I watched that game while decorating the Christmas tree

Any time something goes wrong Brian Kelly looks like he's going to end the person responsible.

Mardy Gilyard is godly.

Haha me too. I remember it like it was yesterday...

Probably the best game of the 2009 season

Being from Pittsburgh. That was a sweet loss for me. I root for Pitt, but it's hard for me to root for them when we play them in the season. And after we lost to them.
