Miami FL Riding 3-Game Win Streak Into Regular Season Finale

Miami enter their final regular season game having won three straight to improve to 9-2 and stay in the playoff hunt.

The Hurricanes enjoyed a dream start to the season as they beat Notre Dame 27-24, and after blowing out Bethune-Cookman, 45-3, they beat reeled off three big in-state wins.

They crushed South Florida 49-12, dominated Florida in a 26-7 win, and then took down Florida State on the road 28-22.

Miami’s playoff hopes took a massive hit over the next few weeks though, as they sandwiched a 42-7 rout of Stanford with a 24-21 loss to Louisville and a 26-20 defeat at SMU.

The Hurricanes have got back on track over the past few weeks though, backing up a 38-10 win against Syracuse with a 41-7 victory over NC State and a 34-17 success at Virginia Tech.

Pitt Looking To Back Up Georgia Tech Upset

Pitt go into this matchup having kept their ACC Championship bid alive with last week’s upset of Georgia tech, which took them to 8-3.

The Panthers opened with back-to-back non-conference wins, but saw their flying start end with a 31-24 defeat to West Virginia.

They then dropped their ACC opener to Louisville, 34-27, but rebounded over the next several weeks to win five straight conference matchups.

Pitt blew out Boston College, 48-7, and backed that up by beating Florida State 34-31, Syracuse 30-13, NC State 53-34 and Stanford 35-20.

The Panthers failed to make it six wins in a row as they lost 37-15 to Notre Dame in a non-conference game, but a return to ACC duty brought a return to winning ways, as they beat Georgia Tech 42-28.

Verdict

Miami FL @ Pitt

Miami are the better team, but they have had major problems covering the spread at a time where they need to be blowing out opponents.

Pitt are no pushovers, especially at home, and they have been a reliable spread bet in recent weeks too, so give us the Panthers and the free points.
