These last two games, whether it is Pitt and Clemson, or Pitt and the bowl game, I believe will be telling as to who will be retained on this Miami coaching staff for next year. Pitt has a strong running game, and against strong running teams (Duke, Florida State) Miami didn't fair too well giving up 40+.
I think, sadly, that this game is the super bowl of the season. A win and the season doesn't feel as bad as it did earlier in the season. A loss, doom and gloom to the 100th degree. Manny Diaz, Mark Richt, and Al Golden were bowl eligible in every season. The last time Miami was not bowl eligible 2007 when Randy Shannon was head coach in his first year. Shannon went on to lose three straight bowl games after that season.
Do you think Miami beats Pitt?
