Look at the Pitt schedule

They were ranked No. 23 because they were 5-1 before playing unranked Clemson. They moved up this week because teams in front of them fell.

They are 6-1 and are coming off of road routes of Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech and a home win of Clemson—each by double digits—with a veteran quarterback under center (the same Kenny Pickett who beat Miami as a freshman in 2017.)

Miami stole a one-point win over NC State and has looked like garbage all season. Pitt should absolutely be 10-point favorites—and the line will only move because of the way the bets are going—not because they're not worth.

I'll be shocked if they don't cover where the line currently is. Last week was a fluke. The Canes fed off a surprising home crowd, like they have for past random Thursday night games where they'd roll a North Carolina—and then a week later look like garbage against someone else.

No corner was turned here. If the Wolfpack's top received doesn't drop some balls (that were so catchable he's been accused by their fans of point shaving) and dude's fumble recovery isn't overturned because he lost a helmet, Canes lose 42-24 instead of ekeing out 31-30.

So very sad but very true.
