The deluge began midway through the first quarter, turned into a monsoon of sorts and morphed into an all-around mess for the University of Miami on Saturday at Hard Rock Stadium.
Duke (6-3, 2-3 Atlantic Coast Conference) became bowl-eligible by defeating Miami 20-12 for the Blue Devils’ first win at UM in 42 years.
The Hurricanes (5-4, 2-3), who are almost certainly out of the race for the Coastal Division title, still haven’t qualified for a bowl game. They lost their third game in a row and their first regular-season home game after 13 straight wins at Hard Rock.
