The platinum sombrero has arrived on the gridiron. Pitt finishes the year on a 5-game slid, but we've got optimism (see: cope) that this team did show movement in the right direction this year and you should feel that they will get better moving forward. See you in the bowl. After that, a lot of talk about the OT win in Columbus for Pitt Hoops, and what we think they went well, and where they can improve. Attaboy, Papa Kante.

Fuck the 8PM time slot. All my homies hate the 8PM time slot.

CONGRATS TO VALERIA VAZQUEZ GOMEZ ON 1,000 CAREER KILLS BECAUSE I FORGOT TO SAY IT ON THE EPISODE!

Friend of the show James Santelli (author of the Bandwagoner's Guide to Pitt Volleyball) joins Zack to talk all things Pitt Volleyball - their dominance this season, their multiple player of the year candidates, the Bre Kelley difference, Dan Fisher's curveballs with Nisa Buzlutepe (Zack cannot pronounce that last name), and looking to the future for this team - both looking to this December in the postseason and to the future addressing new Pitt Athletic Director Allen Greene's comments about the program. It's time to tap in to what Dan Fisher has built on the hill.

Wow, that game sucked. We're talking about Pitt's blowout loss in Dallas against SMU this Saturday, and how this team can get back on its feet after their first loss of the 2024 campaign. Also, we're previewing hoops because we forgot to do that earlier in the year.

You'd best know how to swim. The boys are back to talk about Pitt's huge win over Syracuse in a dominant defensive performance by the linebackers. We're talking poll disrespect, a murky QB situation, and previewing a huge ranked matchup in Dallas against SMU Saturday Night. And a sidebar into Petty Duzz and Indiana football.
