The Miami Hurricanes hit a new low last weekend as they lost in overtime at home against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets despite the Hurricanes being nearly 3 touchdown favorites.
The Pitt Panthers, on the other hand, are a team headed in the other direction as they are riding a 4 game winning streak and are coming off of an impressive 7 point win at Syracuse.
Miami Hurricanes
The Miami Hurricanes have had a week to forget and now get a much tougher task than last week with a road game at Heinz Field against the Pitt Panthers. That game really should not have been close at all as the Hurricanes should have taken care of business at home.
There was no glaring reason why the team lost as all the stats are very close and both teams turned the ball over the same amount of times. It is possible that N’kosi Perry was not at his best because of a nagging shoulder injury, but shoulder injury or not he knows he has got to be better on the road in a tough spot.

The one thing this Miami Hurricanes team can hold it’s head high about is the performance of their defense which has been solid for the majority of the year. The strength of this defense was shown two games back where they held Virginia to only 9 points and 325 total yards.
If the Hurricanes are going to have a shot at winning this game outright it will most likely come down to the performance of this defense, specifically the front 7 and stopping the run game.
Pitt Panthers
The Pitt Panthers went 10-19 on third down in last week’s victory over Syracuse and played an all around solid game. QB Kenny Pickett was solid in leading the charge through the air as here threw for 232 yards and 2 touchdowns without a pick which was good for a QBR in excess of 80.
Pickett will be called upon early and often in this one as the Pitt Panthers may find it hard to achieve the efficiency they are looking for in the running game against this Hurricanes front 7.

It is also possible that Pitt forces the Hurricanes to throw the ball with their strong 7 as well. They held the Syracuse Orange to only 51 yards on 31 attempts in that last game which was only good for 1.5 yards per carry.

I think it will be hard for either of these teams to find anything on the ground in this one and expect both of these teams being forced into passing situations more then they would like. In terms of the quarterbacks I think Pitt has the advantage their and with this team being at home I feel like they should cover this 5.5 point spread.
The Hurricanes do have what it takes to win this game outright, but I feel it might be better to go with the more consistent team playing at home in this spot.
