PITTSBURGH — There perhaps wasn’t anyone who described the Miami Hurricanes’ offense in their 38-34 win over Pittsburgh on Saturday at Heinz Field better than someone from Miami’s defense.
“I imagine [the] offense like a bowling ball,” the true freshman safety James Williams said, “once that bowling ball rolls, it’s hard to stop and knocking whatever pins down in their way.”
The Hurricanes scored touchdowns on their first three drives against Pitt for the first time this season against an FBS team before finishing the game with season-highs-against-FBS-programs of 492 yards and 6.9 yards per play.
But when it mattered most, Miami’s defense came through with the necessary stops when the offense sputtered.
