First off, I can’t decide which stat about the Pitt-Temple matchup is harder to believe: (1) that Pitt ran the ball 41 times (for 253 yards) but only attempted 22 passes (completing 10 for 147 yards), or (2) that 22,934 fans actually attended a Temple game. BS. That many people haven’t seen Temple play in Philadelphia over the past five seasons combined.

Jeez. Given our stunningly improved ground attack with Brandon Miree back, I don’t know which way to lean on this week’s Pitt-Miami pick. The early line favors the Hurricanes by 3.5. I might actually be leaning towards the Panthers.

Say, can somebody explain to me how this game will influence who the Big East sends to the BCS? If Miami wins, I understand that Miami will go. But what if Miami loses?

Just asking. I’m sure that some professional sportswriter will explain this to me in some fish-wrap in a day or so anyways. I’m just impatient.

Hail to Miami not representing the Big East in the BCS.
