The Hurricanes are in full control of this game and with Pitt shooting themselves in the foot, this only helps the Hurricanes and their resume. The Hurricanes return to their old ways and run the ball up the middle for a touchdown.
Second Quarter:
Miami 17, Pitt 7
Malachi Toney is one of the best players in the world. He is nearing a record-breaking season as a Cane, and he is now only one rushing yard short of a three-touchdown day.
Miami has to beat three people today: Themselves, their opponent, and the refs. This is one of the best signs as Pitt misses a field goal.

Dare I say Malachi Toney should be QB 1 next season? He continues to be a Godsend for the Hurricanes, who are making play after play to get him the ball, and he throws a touchdown to give the Hurricanes the lead. Elija Lofton with the catch.

First Quarter:
What a play call and what a play. Pitt is short, but these running backs are game-hangers right now for the Panthers. Pitt has made play after play against this Hurricanes defense that is at historic levels. The Panthers
Miami 3, Pitt 0
Offensively, the Hurricanes are playing around a bit in the red zone, but the defense is playing so well that it can happen. Miami settles for the field goal.
The Hurricanes are up to two sacks on the day. Rueben Bain Jr. is now starting to wreck the game.
A drop on first down and a sack on third down get the Hurricanes' offense off the field. Was driving well, but made mistakes
The opening drive for Pitt was fantastic for how the Canes want to play. Miami's defense came out hot, and now drives are about to be long and hard for the Pitt defense.

Pregame:
It's the final game of the regular season for the Miami Hurricanes. It is also the most important game of the season for them. This will be a ranked matchup for the Canes against a dangerous Pittsburgh team that will do everything it can to try and win this game.
For both teams, this is a chance to make the ACC Championship game, even with so many variables that have to fall for either winner to make it. It can happen, and the Canes are hoping that it does for the sake of their playoff chances.
Four-year head coach Mario Cristobal looks to have a positive November and close out the month 4-0 first the first time as the Canes head coach and try to get his team into the College Football Playoff.
