Cotton Bowl ’Canes: Miami takes down Buckeyes to advance to CFP Semifinals

After six straight bowl game losses, the Miami Hurricanes are bowl champions once again — defeating the No. 2 Ohio State Buckeyes 24-14 in the 90th edition of the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic.

Up 10 with less than a minute to go, Miami just needed one stop to start its celebration. On first down, while trying to avoid a sack, Ohio State quarterback Julian Sayin lofted the ball right into the hands of Miami’s Jakobe Thomas, who slid down and took a knee.

With 71,323 fans in attendance at AT&T Stadium, the Miami sideline erupted as the ’Canes charged onto the field.
