Emory looked great when the Canes beat Clemson, and ended in Poptart failure. It could be that Carr’s not as good as everyone thinks after one decent game with a Championship level cast surrounding him? Personally hope he loses the Blue Bonnet Bowl with his leprechaun buddies.
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- — They were down by 10 in the fourth quarter. They were facing an opponent that always seems to blow them out. They were without their starting quarterback. And they were coming off two losses that left a very distinct sense of here-we-go-again around a program that has sputtered plenty in recent years.
No, Miami is not back.
But this might be a night the Hurricanes remember for a long time.
Ajay Allen got the go-ahead score on a 3-yard run in the second overtime, and shorthanded Miami ended the game on a fourth-down stop to stun Clemson 28-20 on Saturday night.
“It validates a lot,” Miami coach Mario Cristobal said. “And it increases our appetite to go get more.”
