Miami and Pittsburgh have been running into each other for three quarters of a century now, bumping into one another as independents, Big East rivals and, now, ACC foes. The brands and coaches have changed, but this matchup has had a knack for showing up at key moments in conference races and, a few times, the national conversation.
The series began in 1950 and has been a regular part of Miami's schedule in every decade since. As of their last meeting in 2022, the Hurricanes lead the all-time series 29-12-1, with wins in 25 of the past 31 games.
