Hail To Links! The "All Pitt Friday" Edition

Eight days. Pitt football starts in eight days. But the college football season actually starts in six days, next Thursday night with South Carolina at Vanderbilt. Since this is the last Friday before the season, it'll be an "All Pitt Friday." Today we will take a look at our own thoughts on the upcoming season, Steve Pederson's thoughts on Paul Chryst, Chris Jacobson's thoughts on the new offense, and more...after the jump.

And just because I've said it three times already, here is the fourth...thoughts.

They like us. They really like us. WVU AD Oliver Luck again revisits the idea of continuing the Backyard Brawl. The commentors all seem to want it to continue, and some hate the Big XII already.

Recruiting roundup. Chas over at Pitt Blather takes a look at the state of recruiting for the class of 2013.

BREAKING: Offensive linemen like Paul Chryst's system. Chris Jacobson talks about Pitt's return to smash mouth football.
