I wouldn't call that "trucked".

Aside from a delayed ILB blitz or two, I didn't see much of any blitz packages from our starters.
I didn't see any stunts from our DL, or our starting edge rushers getting moved around either.
If I'd seen that, I might feel worse.

You can always look for areas to improve, but I didn't see anything to make me feel worse about Pitt.

Now just stop with facts!

I'm very happy the Volunteers steamrolled the Cardinals 59-10.

However, I won't overreact that the Volunteers are a terrific team with an elite offense because the Volunteers were at Rocky Top playing an outmatched Cardinals team that had no realistic chance of winning which did get shown on the field in a game that was an embarrassment , and also the Cardinals had no realistic chance of keeping the game close.

The Volunteers are a good Middleweight team that can realistically win 8 games in the regular season, and they have a realistic chance of defeating a top 25 ranked team for a signature win.
