HEAVYWEIGHTS: Pitt Allows 57 Rushing Yards a Game. Can No. 1 Miami Break Them? ft. Robert Burns

And man, I give Florida State credit.

We know Miami's a gritty, tough team.

I give Florida State credit for how they came out last week, man.

And look, we broke down the game and the thing that we talked about was the run game for Florida State.

I got to tell you, that passing attack, although you look at Ashton Daniels' numbers and look, the completion percentages weren't perfect, but you look at the big plays that were made in the passing game for Florida State and the way they were able to attack Miami's secondary made the game very, very interesting.

Again, probably tighter than Canes fans would have liked.

But overall, man, what were your takeaways from...

Man, the one thing that really stood out to me about Florida State is that they did a great job of presenting different pitchers on the defensive front end.

And so a lot of times what teams do, you know, they say, hey, we want to commit to this one thing and become really, really good at it.

Florida State says, no, like we're actually going to be multiple pitchers.

Right.

Multiplicity is one of those words that's been thrown around the last like two years.

People saw the Seahawks do it.

And so kind of like every trend, everyone wants to get involved.

But they actually did it.

You watch that just the first drive, the first two drives.

You see them line up in a three front, a five man front.

They were even building five man fronts, you know, a four down front just presenting different pitchers.

And so what happens with that is it gets your offense alignment out of rhythm.

Man, what picture are they going to show us now? What kind of front are they going to come in now? And that's why you saw, you know, a lot of success on some of their stunts and getting really close to Mensa.

Yeah, I think maybe the offensive line, we were excited about what we saw against Clemson.

It was a very encouraging performance there.

And you have a bye week, right, to continue to gel.

But it did seem like Florida State gave them problems up front and going to need to get that corrected.

Hopefully, it's just a matter of them playing more football together like we've talked about.
