No. 10 Miami hung on for a 27-24 win over No. 6 Notre Dame on Sunday night.
The Hurricanes lost a 10-point lead over the course of the fourth quarter but got a 47-yard field goal from Carter Davis with 1:04 remaining for the win.

Sunday’s game was Davis’ first as a Miami player after he transferred from Florida Atlantic and beat out former Texas kicker Bert Auburn for the starting job. Davis was just 4-of-11 on field goals in his FAU career and had made just three of nine kicks over 40 yards.
Notre Dame didn’t have any timeouts remaining and didn’t get across midfield on its final drive of the game as the Miami pass rush got to CJ Carr on back-to-back snaps to seal the game.
