The Pittsburgh Panthers have lost consecutive games by a point, dropping them out of the Top 25. Derailment to the Panthers season has been caused by a plethora of key injuries. Yet, they’re starting to regain health, which should give them a boost on the field against the Hurricanes. Grab the near two-touchdown underdog as the Panthers play a competitive game against the Hurricanes.

Pitt was overvalued early as a double-digit favorite in most of its games. We should see a correction from here on out, but this is the type of spot in which the Panthers historically thrived. They have dominated the series with Miami of late, and look for the Hurricanes to start unraveling after last week's blowout loss to Clemson. The only surprising outcome Saturday would be a Miami blowout win.

If I've learned anything about Miami the last few years it's that the program does not bounce back from crushing losses, it only digs itself in deeper in the hole. So I'm not ready to rely on a recovery this weekend with an early kickoff at home against a Pitt team that is always a pain in the butt to deal with. I think Miami wins, but I'm not convinced it does, so I'll take the Panthers and the points.
