Bethune-Cookman managed only 86 passing yards and a field goal, failing to score a touchdown for the second straight game. Over two games, they have been outscored 87-12 and have only four field goals on 119 offensive plays.

Safety Jordan Johnson was ejected for targeting in the third quarter, which means he will miss the first half of next week's game at South Carolina State. This loss could weaken an already challenged secondary.

Timmy McClain completed 13 of 15 passes for 86 yards, but the offense lacked explosiveness and failed to reach the end zone. The Wildcats need more production from the passing game to compete.

Bethune-Cookman visits South Carolina State next Saturday. They will need to address offensive inefficiency and adjust for Johnson's absence in the first half to have a chance at their first win.

Miami held Pitt to just 7 points and sacked freshman QB Mason Heintschel on the first play, consistently pressuring him and limiting the Panthers' offense after a sluggish start.

Beck completed 23 of 29 passes for 267 yards and 3 TDs, finishing the regular season with a 74.7% completion rate (best in FBS and a program record), including a late 33-yard TD to add style points for CFP consideration.

Miami closed the regular season with four straight wins by an average of 27.5 points, improving to 10-2 and keeping slim hopes for an ACC title game berth alive, while bolstering their case for an at-large CFP spot.

Malachi Toney caught 13 passes for 126 yards and threw a 9-yard TD pass to Elija Lofton, showcasing versatility and depth in the passing game that overwhelmed Pitt's defense in the second half.

Miami's next game is guaranteed (bowl or CFP), but the opponent, location, and stakes depend on other ACC outcomes and CFP selection committee decisions, with their resume including a win over No. 6 Notre Dame.
