-Even with the easiest schedule of All Time starting the season with 3 high school teams, the Canes are completely awful. 3rd week in a row they were out gained by a P5 team. The Giant Losing streak has started for Miami. Next 4 of 5 games are on the road, the Miami Collapse has started. Say Goodnight to the Top 25 for good Miami.

It's funny how many of you listen to and defend steel, who first predicted 10 wins, then melted down after the two close losses.

Miami doesn't stink. I would give Pitt a shot to beat them, but I wouldn't put them as favorites, and would probably give Miami about 6 right now.

My post isn't a shot at Pitt. It is mocking the OP.

Yea I wouldn't bet on Pitt to beat Miami. Kaaya is more than capable of lighting us up and they have athletes on defense to slow us down. I think we'll lose that one.

No, Miami does not stink. Pitt can win, but they will have to put up 45 points.

The idea they stink when they lost to
FSU by one and UNC by 7 is laughable. If you want to use the transitive property, they pretty much dominated GT on the road and Pitt nearly lost to them at home.

Again, the reason I hate posts you make is because I think you purposely make these absurd statements so that down the line whenever they don't meet your absurd expectations or lose to a team you claim "stinks" it gives you an excuse to come on here and blast the players and coaches.

This is a case of Bipolar. We lose a game, we stink, and will be lucky to win 5 games. Then all of a sudden we win, and we are going to steamroll teams. Jeez.

Agree. The OP is absurd. I'll still be quite happy if Pitt finished with 7 wins. Clemson I still think is absolutely a loss, and Pitt will be dogs agains Miami and VT. If Pitt gets to 8 wins, that would be a GREAT year.

-If Pitt played Woodland Hills, Plum, and Penn Hills, would you be happy? Because that's a greater challenge then Miami's schedule to date. Miami has a Baylor schedule, which is the worst in the country. Miami is an overrated complete joke of playing no one.

Ok. So what you got in that game? Pitt by 30?

I appreciate your enthusiasm, which is refreshing amongst Pitt fans, but you are a total square when it comes to these predictions.

You always go by the last thing you saw, which is the sign of a total donk. You sir are a bookmakers dream.

Pitt will not be a dog vs tech.

Coley can't be covered by any corner in this city. Still thinking they'll need to put the ball on the ground for us to have a chance. Good thing is their youth may hurt them against Canada's mis direction plays. Two 18 year olds in the middle on D. Hmmm. I'm changing my mind already. ;)

There is AMPLE reason to be skeptical of this pass defense.

I would make one note, however.

The teams that lit up the pass defense were primarily spread, passing offenses. OSU, PSU and NC. That offense is the absolutely worse match up for Nard's quarter man defense, it really isolates the DBs every play pretty much, and is ideal for getting that FS (Webb) man on a WR that has tortured this team all year.

Miami's base offense is pro style. So while Kaya is a fine QB and they have a lot of talent, the scheme is not a disadvantageous.

That said, they game is on the road and Miami is absolutely a very dangerous team, and as noted, just has had Pitt's number for a LONG time.
 
What were they thinking hiring mark richt? Is there any coach that has done less w/ more than this guy... ever?? We're talking Foge territory here and that is probably an insult to Foge since he proved himself in the NFL. Poor Foge... born 20 years too early. Nowadays he would be bouncing around Power 5 jobs making millions on buy-outs alone.

Richt is 149-53. Seriously??
 
Pitt will be favored vs V tech and I will be disappointed if we lose. It is a game we should win, at home.

Miami is a winnable game. Clemson, which I had in the "cold day in hell" potential to win category, has moved to a potential upset. I think the Vegas odds of Pitt beating Clemson went from 5% to 20%, given Clemsons less than dominant performances and Pitts somewhat better than expected performance.

Kayaa will throw for 500 yards against us. We might win but it won't be comfortable. We haven't had a comfortable win this season.

I don't recall Steel saying the bar was only 8 wins. He predicted at least 9 wins and maybe more before season starts. Predicted wins over OK State. Said they were crap. And predicted a win over UNC. Said we would destroy PSU. We won by 3. Do take his predictions lightly.

They will score 35+ on us, hopefully and realistically, we should be able to score 40 on them.

Agree. He set the minimum for the year to not be a failure at 8. He said anything under 8 wins would be a huge dissapointment. To me, that sounds like for the season to be a success in his eyes they needed 9 or 10 wins.

The point was... I apology I have to explain this but since you're probably 12 years old I will do my civic duty. The guy had monster recruiting classes at Georgia. Look at his SEC record the past 5 years. Look at his record against GT. He is mediocre at best.

He was 13-2 against GT. Is this a comedy act or are you simply dumb?

He predicted 10 wins. He touted that he predicted 10 wins after we beat PSU. He flipped out and back tracked after we lost to OKSt and UNC. He is back to saying we will trounce Miami.

Miami, like va tech and unc, looked damn good in some games and very beatable in others. Outside of Clemson, we could very possible win out. Of course we could finish 7-5 too.

Pitt will be favored by at least 5 against VT. VT just got abused by Syracuse and might lose this Thursday
 
If we're going to beat Miami, we'll have to do what we've had to do throughout the season to this point.....score at least 40 points. If we can't score 40 points, we won't win. And even when we do score 40, it's no guarantee of a win. Can we score 40 against Miami? I don't know. But they can score 40 against us.

Those 3 games against VT, Miami and Clemson are going to be tough to win. 1-2 against them would be a good thing.

Just for funsies, I went back and looked at his SEC record for the past five years. 30-10 I believe. Both times Georgia Tech beat Georgia under Richt they were ranked in the top 20 - in November. Richt never had a losing season there, and he only had one year with a losing record in conference. All-time he was 83-37 in the SEC.

I think a comparison to Foge Fazio is utterly silly for obvious reasons, like the numbers above.

He's clearly a good coach, but maybe not an elite coach and that eventually got him fired.

I don't know if he'll bring Miami back to their glory days, but he's a damn good antidote to the disease Al Golden infected that place with. And at his age, if he's only there for about five years and turns the keys over to someone with the program on more solid ground both in recruiting and on-field play that's not a bad deal for Miami.

Didn't go back and look, but Miami is lucky to have Richt. Their own fans don't really give a crap about the program, the Heat is the biggest game in town.

Al Golden was a horrible choice and set them back a few years, Richt will steady the ship. Might take a few years though.
