REDEMPTION: Miami Hurricanes FACE History at Pitt—Malachi Toney Poised to DELIVER in Critical Clash

Miami Hurricanes face a season-defining showdown as they battle Pitt on the road, with ACC Championship and College Football Playoff hopes hanging in the balance. Alex Donno explores why fans are nervous, how Malachi Toney’s explosive playmaking could tilt the matchup, and why Miami’s physical edge up front matters against Pitt’s undersized defensive line. Can the Hurricanes shake off their late-season demons and capitalize on a must-win opportunity?

Alex Donno also tackles the controversy surrounding the CFP committee’s rankings—debating Miami’s spot behind Notre Dame and Alabama despite key head-to-head wins—and unpacks the politics and media narratives shaping the postseason race. Listener questions fuel discussions about NIL deals for stars like Malachi, Jordan Lyle’s injury struggles, legal recourse for ACC officiating blunders, and which 2026 recruits are poised for early impact. Don’t miss this in-depth look at Miami’s path to postseason glory and the challenges ahead.
