Miami is coming off a bye after losing to Northwestern 13-6 in Week 1. They've had two weeks to dissect the UC defense and offense on tape and the game is at Yager Stadium.
I think it's hard to gauge how good or bad Miami is this year on one game against a bottom tier P4. The Redhawks don't play an FCS team this year to compare against UC's win over Towson. I think it's safe to say Pitt is better than Northwestern though or at least we made them look that way.
ESPN predictor has us at a 55% chance to win and I'm not sure what they're looking at. Hopefully Miami is looking ahead on this one. The next game on the schedule for Miami is at Notre Dame.
In the event that we lose this game, it'll be interesting to see the next move from the administration re: Satterfield. We should not lose this game in the current football climate, even at Yager.

P.S. Chuck Martin has a chance to get two coaches fired in successive weeks here after NIU upset ND yesterday.
