 Football Coach, University of Pitts. bursh Copyright 1892 NEA Service Inc. ] Pitt has a good team this year. I believe 1t is a team superior to those of many other years. Yet we are facing a schedule in which nine of the 10 outfits we meet must be rated as capable of giving us at least an even break. Having defeated Ohio Northern in somewhat easy fashion, we now face the prospect of nine rugged foes on successive Saturdays. These ane West Virginia, Duquesne, Army, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Pennsyl- vania, Nebraska, Carnegie Tech Stanford.
 There isn't team on the list for which wouldn't like to be able to prime my players, but with an- other game just as tough coming up each Saturday, this will be im- possible. For instance, Pitt must play Ohio State one of the strong Big Ten contenders between the Army and Notre Dame games. 
 Good News? Reports from Notre Dame, Stanford and Army indicate the It's eye on the Big Ten title. Car negie Tech, just about due to beat us, expects its best team in years, and Nebraska is just waiting for a chance at us in its own backyard.
 Rt0hf f. will have but three of our 1931 regulars in the starting lineup. Just how we'll the new line, fashioned to replace the entire for ward wall of 1881 lost by gradu- ation, will work 1t is impossible to predict.
 Likely there will be two sopho- mores on the front line. At one guard will be Kenny Ormiston, who looks like a conner and at a tackle will be Bob Hoel, an active young- ster from Evanston, Ill.
 Not So Bad
 To balance their inexperience we will have the rest of the line composed of second and third stringers of last season. In 1881 ends will be at varsity posts this year. Both Ted Daley and Joe Skladany stood the gaff well in the relief roles last season.
 Joe Tormey, who was e good enough center for years to keep Ralph Daughtery hustling, has the job all to himself this year, and we expect great things of him. He has everything, including a great fighting heart.
 Tar Onder a 1891 second string CT, and Paul Cuba, who has not played in many games since 1930, will be the other guard and tackle, respectively.
 Cubas sudden awakening has been a highlight of the training season. We are hoping that he will be like Mike Getto, who emerged. after two years on the bench to be an All-American in his final sea- son.
 Dependable Duo
 There is no reason for me to be- lieve that my confidence in my two halfbacks, Captain Paul Reider, a really great leader and Warren Heller, back who can and is will ing to do everything, will be mis- placed.
 Bob Hogan played well as sophomore at the difficult quarter back post, and this year, with his bunting improved, should be of much more value.
 am undecided at fullback, pending the return of John Luch. temporarily lost due to illness. With him out, we will use either lazy Weinstock or Heinie Weisenbaugh.
 AS I have said, the material would likely prove satisfactory in other years, but severe demands this year make any prediction im- possible. We are not facing the season pessimistically, however.
