was Mark May angry at the pollsters decision to elevate ND ahead of Pitt for the NC, May has been quoted on several occassions saying had Pitt played UGA rather than ND, Pitt would have \"whipped\" our butt!!! It's largely sour grapes, but there is an element of history between UGA and Pitt, most notably a match-up in 76.
Yeah...the '77 Sugar Bowl stings, since they won the NC and we WOULD HAVE had we beaten them. But they beat our butts, 27-3. We also faced them in the '82 Sugar Bowl (the year Climpson won the NC) and they beat us then, too. So May might be justified in saying that Pitt could have beaten us instead of us beating ND, but he doesn't understand...Herschel played that whole game with a SEPARATED SHOULDER. You remove the ND element -- their defense was incredible -- and their system, and maybe Herschel doesn't dislocate his whole everloving arm. Then maybe he rushes for FOUR touchdowns instead of the two we needed to beat the Irish.
The hell with Mark May.
Seriously, he can go straight to hell.
