Please Do Not Fall Into The Pitt

After a week off, your 7th ranked Hurricanes lost to top ranked Clemson.

It was probably expected, but definitely not accepted.

Apparently, their cheerleaders were very happy with the win over an ACC opponent. And as fair is fair, maybe they should be.

Unfortunately, this has been Miami's standard modis operandi recently after a week off. Win big, come back slow and then fall asleep in the next game.

Sure Clemson is not your common bye week opponent but still it stings just the same. Miami needs to get this bye week problem solved and soon.

Next up, the Miami Hurricanes face off against Pitt on Saturday at Hard Rock Stadium at noon. What this game presents is the final countdown.

Now, Miami needs to avoid being erased from the National discussion by falling prey to Pittsburgh. Can they do that? Well, the answer is yes, but it clearly depends on the offense and play calling.

If I told you that these two components would be completely different against Pitt than they were against Clemson, would you believe me?

Well you should. Because they will.

It will be like the FSU game, trust me.

Canespace Prediction: Miami 34 - Pitt 13

Well, if Pickett plays very little or not all, then we might roll.
Until the missing Links decide to show up in unison, then we will continue to be consistent.
Until we quit giving up chunk plays then will struggle a bit.
Until we find some stable LB's then we will struggle to fill gaps and cover backs out of the backfield.
If teams continue to jam the box, then we won't run for much, which then brings those missing Links into play.
Our Oh line ain't great but supposedly in this offense they don't have to be, which again brings us back to those Missing Links.
With that being said I see us struggling to a 27-21 and that is if Pickett plays.

Obviously that should be inconsistent if the missing Links don't show up.

The Pitt game will tell me a lot about the coaching staff, the admin and the team! We need to come out gangbusters and crush Pitt!

Going to have a breakout game vs Pitt.

Don't believe me just watch!

[AeroCane]

I’d love to see it 86!
I want to see rivers, brooks, Payton, possibly Smith and Redding, respero actually field and return a punt;
I don’t want to see: mccloud, Jennings, Carter (2nd half), Clark, pope, Harley
I think Knighton, Payton (per 86) and Mallory have big games on O

Aero - LOL as for the admin - Blake James still has a job and shouldn't. All we need to know right there. Happy Friday!

[Old Skool]

The ribs are marinating. I'm primed for game day.
When does the pre-game start?

Hope the panthers live up to their designation: an endangered species

[Old Skool]

No news on Brevin. I presume he's still questionable for today.

[AeroCane]

Good morning and Go Canes!
It beautiful and 64 in st Augustine this morning. Let’s hope it’s a beautiful day in Miami!
Play fast, play aggressive and have fun AND WIN!

Play Payton, Redding, Smith, Restrepo, brooks, Harrison-hunte
Don’t play or minimize mccloud, Jennings, pope, Harley and Wiggins

[Old Skool]

I'll second that. I'd like to see more of the young pups play.

5 star DT Leonard Taylor pushing for 5 star DT to come to the U and team up with him and be part of the fam!
We can hope!!

[AeroCane]

And I’d like to see rivers over Clark on the OL!

[HerbieIbis]

Aero,
Trying to woo Mason Smith from Louisanna.

[HerbieIbis]

The missing links:
Harley
Pope
Wiggins
Just put them in the oven and warm them up.
Only use as neccessary.

I am jealous of the 64 degrees!
