Has Pitt ever been favored vs them?

I would guess that Miami is going to play the underclassmen....getting ready for the future.

Pitt is playing for Bowl status. But I still say 6 is too many

Why would the coaches care about getting ready for the future when chances are very good that they won't be there next year? Quite the opposite, they will be looking for a resume builder here.

You'd have to imagine Pitt was at least a slight favorite in 1976, no?

I don't remember them playing in 76.

Before the first game this year. Did anyone see us being favored by 6 against Miami? I sure didn't.

October 16, 1976 at beautiful, historic Pitt Stadium. Pitt 36, Miami 19. The week before TD broke the rushing record at Navy.

Oh, and for the on campus stadium crowd, a throng of just over 42,000 people were there to see the soon to be national champions.
