Former Penn State LB Nyeem Wartman really hates Pitt
Published:
It doesn’t get any worse than Pitt for Nyeem Wartman. He made that perfectly clear on Twitter earlier this week.
The former Penn State linebacker tweeted his absolute disgust for the Panthers on Tuesday, saying he hopes his former team absolutely dismantles the in-state rival on Saturday.
This weekend I hope Penn State put up 60 on Pitt, seriously hate Pitt more than Temple and I tore my ACL twice against them.

As you can imagine, Penn State fans were loving that message. Pitt fans? Not so much.
Putting up 60 points will probably be a little more challenging against Pitt, though the Lions did score 52 in the season opener against Akron. With weapons like Saquon Barkley, Trace McSorley, and Mike Gesicki, Penn State could certainly put up a lot of points on Saturday.
Warman tallied 123 stops and 8.5 tackles for loss in his career at Penn State. His 2015 and 2016 seasons were cut extremely short due to knee injuries though, and the linebacker played in just four total games in his final two seasons.
Pitt-Penn State is scheduled for a 3:30 p.m. start in Beaver Stadium and will air on ABC.
