Was it too soon to think Pittsburgh was the second best team in the ACC? Apparently so after they were beaten pretty easily bye the Hurricanes on Saturday. The offense couldn’t push the ball downfield at all, as Kenny Pickett finished the game 14-22 for only 130 yards passing. Next up is Clemson, who will look to take their defense up a notch after a poor showing against South Carolina.

This season hasn’t gone as planned for the Miami Hurricanes, but a resounding 24-3 win sees them finish with seven wins and a possible eighth once bowl games are announced. Travis Homer ran the ball eight times for 168 yards and a score, and the defense kept Pittsburgh out of the end zone in the emphatic win.

The Wolfpack needed overtime to defeat a two-win Tar Heels team, but when you are jockeying for bowl positioning a win is a win in the conference. Reggie Gallapsy had one of the best rushing games in school history, as he finished the day with 129 yards rushing and five touchdowns! This NC State team has had a few rough breaks they will definitely be a team to watch in 2019.
