ANALYSIS: Miami may have lost the battle vs. Georgia Tech, but Canes have not lost the war as team still controls own ACC title game destiny
The Miami Hurricanes might have lost the battle on Saturday at Georgia Tech, but as the saying goes the Canes have not necessarily lost the war. But UM is not really in the driver's seat anymore for the ACC title game because Pitt is in front as of now for the conference tiebreaker in the race to face SMU (assuming all the teams win out). Miami would win a head-to-head tiebreakder with Clemson, and yes the Tigers play Pitt next weekend. Clemson, Miami and Pitt all have one conference loss; SMU has not lost an ACC game.
