Dealing with the cold...

This is BS! I played several tennis matches in 30 degree weather! And that was wearing 80's style butthugging shorts!

That's a pretty good recruiting tool right there
 
We blamed the cold for a loss in Orlando, and one in Texas. The Radio excuses have to stop

That fat turncoat Ty Moss went up there and ground them to chopped meat back in 2003. Pitt was better then than they are now, and we completely dominated them. Berlin was struggling badly then too.

This is all about mental toughness because once you get to running around and get lathered up you don't even feel 30 something degrees.
 
we went up there in the coker years when Larry Fitz was killing it as a jr it was Nov 29 2003...the temp at kick off as 30...night game
We won easily and fitz was held to 3 catches and 26 yards and a td.....

different times and different players...

I believe thats when we trotted out the MEAST Sean Taylor on goaline situations to man up on Fitz.






Hed been destroying college football all year
 
Just finished a ride in Huntsville MTB trails, where it's 35 right now and no problem after your face goes numb in the wind. You move around great, but like another poster said, it's when you hit the cold hardened ground it frikkin hurts (without pads). In football gear - should be no worries.

They're not playing in grandpa's backyard either, they're playing at an NFL stadium with a professional grounds crew. The field will be in good condition.
Actually - they replaced the sod this week. The turf might actually be an issue. I'll be surprised if it isn't.

And that 2003 game had to have been colder than 30. It was intense.

Just checked NOAA. Anywhere from 32 dropping to 23 degrees. Calm winds around 5mph. The wind is big, sounds like that won't be bad. Of course the soft shouldered SoFla boys might fold like a cheap circus tent in 30 degree weather. All huddled together around the heated benches drinking hot cocoa playing like they can't wait to get back on the plane. All these guys talk about is playing in The League, The League, The League. Welp, this is Pittsburgh in November. It's not even cold yet. Embrace it, or fold.

Golden should go all Bud Grant on their azzes. No heaters, short sleeves.
 
If its 30 and in afternoon with the sun out it will feel like 60-70, we are going to run like deer. Miami -3

Lmao! 60-70? Are you kidding?

30 and sunny actually feels quite warm. ****, even 30 isn't that cold. Bunch of pussies.
It won't be sunny...partly cloudy and sunny are two VERY different things in Pittsburgh and the winter sun sits quite low in the sky + the sun sets before 5pm. Much of this game will be under lights.

The 2003 game was a night game, and it was colder. Didn't affect us then. Mindset and toughness. This will be another test for Al Tin. He's supposed to have increased the toughness of the team.
 
Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm thankful that we have so many tough hard nose fans with the mental toughness to pull us through difficult times with no excuses.

Al's gonna pass out hot thermoses of chicken noodle soup to all the guys, put on their mittens and scarves and tell them to go out and, win or lose, just give it the best they've got. The heater on the bus will be cranked up after the game.
