Title: Rivalry Talk: MU v Pitt

From today's Forde Minutes:

Big East: Marquette-Pittsburgh (13). Two of the game's best young coaches -- Tom Crean (14) and Jamie Dixon (15) -- have two of the league's toughest teams physically, and the intensity boiled over last season in Pittsburgh. Pitt's Antonio Graves put Marquette's Dominic James out for eight minutes after a hard foul, the coaches exchanged postgame words, and this year Pitt's Mike Cook suggested that Crean said the Panthers were a "dirty team." (Crean denied saying any such thing.) Know this: Pitt won that first Big East meeting between the two, but Marquette has won the last two, including an upset win at Pitt last month (all three have been decided by six points or less). Mark your calendar for March 3, when the two meet in the last game of the regular season.

this game and it's buildup are huge, with the teams in the positions they are now, it will probably be for the conference regular season title...that game will be absolutely huge and hopefully we can keep up the winning against Pitt that we have been fortunate enough to have...maybe widen the win margin though a little. :)

For the College Gameday game, I am told that for the blue-out, every student will receive a 1977 throwback t-shirt. Thats pretty cool I think.

I liked it when Pitt was the "Beast of the East" and lowly MU had no shot at the Zoo, but came away with the W.... :)

Will the 1977 T-shirt proudly and boldy say "Warriors" as it justly should? If for some reason it doesn't, I don't want it.
