As promised, it's on to some NCAA discussion! Though they're the home team, Matt and Steve share some thoughts about horrible Pitt is. If any of our local teams should get a big bowl chance, the guys have some thoughts on PSU and WVU for that big picture. The picture for Pitt basketball isn't looking much better for their basketball game. They're not looking great, but it is a long season - so anything could happen. Moving on to Duquesne, they've got some Bobby MO!

Matt and Steve take a look at some Hall of Fame semi-finalists before heading into the Steelers thoughts for the week. With Marcus Gilbert suspended, it looks like Hubbard will be replacing him. Our boys in black and gold have some high power offense and a strong defense. Matt and Steve share their thoughts about how it'll all come together heading into the remainder of the season.

As they do, the guys wrap up this week's show with some BOLD predictions about NFL - Week 12.

The Penguins had a hot week with Phil Kessel's two overtime winning goals coming in at 299 and 300 respectively for his record. It was otherwise Murray's first bad showing.

The MLB World Series game was a wild one. It's the homeruns ever in the playoffs! But, it's all about the pitching and the long ball for Matt and Steve.

College football is going strong. Pitt has an ACC win over Virginia, but was their defense on point for the game? The guys otherwise pay homage to Henderson's punt return touchdown and the passing touchdown by DiNucci. Penn State started off great with Barkley taking the opening kickoff 97 yeards, but then squanders a 15-point lead in the 4th. They drop to #7. Notre Dame was otherwise a total ground game with lots of penalties. They've moved up to the #5 spot, though.

The Steelers are at a 20-15 win-loss record. Juju had 195 yards and one touchdown, but Brown was held in check for the game. Matt and Steve share some additional thoughts as the Steelers head into their buy week.

As they do, the guys wrap up this week's show with some BOLD predictions about NFL - Week 10.

Steve and Matt are talking about their 8-8 fantasy tie for the week, but Matt's holding a slight lead at 30-17 over Steve's 29-18 record so far. At the top of the show we've got some Pirates highlights, especially Cutch. With the MLB regular season wrapping up, we're also talking current standings and wild card options. From baseball, we move on to some Pitt Football news and Heisman Watch players before talking some hockey! With two pre-season games left, the Penguins are looking to their home-opener next Wednesday. The young guys are looking good, but since it's still pre-season, we haven't seen much of the main roster yet. As for this week's NFL talk Matt and Steve talk about this week's issue - a muffed punt and a blocked kick. Overall, we learned not to showboat, and that the Red Zone offense needs to improve third down conversions, espeically with the Ravens this week - in Baltimore.

The guys wrap up this week's show with some BOLD predictions about NFL - Week 4.
