Great matchup on ESPN for Thursday night college football. Both teams are trying to meet high expectations for the 2010 season. I believe Miami has a load of talent. Jacory Harris can make every throw you want him to make and his arm and accuracy or as good as anyone in college football today. Problem with Harris he is as good as any QB in college football completing it to the other team. Harris through 4 INTs against Ohio State and two were absolutely brutal killing scoring drives.
Pittsburgh never seems to meet the expectation level under Dave Wannstedt and so far it appears that could be the case again in 2010. RB Dion Lewis was expected to be a Heisman Trophy candidate after a phenominal freshman season, however the sophomore RB struggled against Utah and only had 27 rushing yards on 10 carries against New Hampshire of all teams! Pittsburgh is also dealing with major personnel issues as DE Greg Romeus will likely miss the rest of the season due to a disc issue in his lower back. On top of that, backup RB Jason Douglas and OL Keith Coleman are both suspended indefinitely after being arrested for DUI and aggrivated assault respectively.
This is a big game for both teams tonight. For Miami, Harris needs to get the ball to WRs Leonard Hankerson and LaRon Byrd and eliminate the turnovers. Pitt on the other hand must establish some form of a running game. If not it’s could be a long night as well as a long season for Dave Wannstedt.
