In a cold November regular-season finale, ACC aspirations were still on the line for both No. 12 Miami and No. 22 Pitt. For the Panthers, it was the most important ACC game since the 2021 season.

Pitt’s hopes and dreams were smothered quickly as a disappointing effort gave way to a Miami 38-7 victory Saturday at Acrisure Stadium.
