Jacory Harris Leads Miami Past Pittsburgh 31-3
Miami Hurricanes junior quarterback Jacory Harris had a tough outing Thursday night against the Pittsburgh Panthers
Harris threw two rainbow interceptions like the four he threw in a 36-24 loss to No. 2 Ohio State two weeks ago, but shook them off and 21 of 32 for 248 yards and two touchdowns to lead Miami to a 31-3 win at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh.
Harris’ two touchdown passes were caught by senior wide receiver Leonard Hankerson and one of the most dangerous return men in college football, Travis Benjamin.
Miami running backs Damien Berry and freshman sensation Lamar Miller combined for 118 yards and a touchdown each to give the ‘Canes the balance they needed on offense.
Pittsburgh sophomore running back Dion Lewis, the nation’s leading returning rusher, was given little running room by an overwhelmed offensive line and ended with 41 yards on 12 carries.Lewis, coming off a 1,799-yard season as a freshman, has been held to 143 yards in three games.
The only bright spot for the Panthers was the play of senior defensive end Jabaal Sheard.
Sheard, a south Florida native, wreaked havoc against his hometown team finishing with six tackles, two for loss and two sacks.
Miami will be begin ACC conference play at the Clemson Tigers next Saturday.
