The Miami football team dropped to 18th in the College Football Playoff rankings essentially eliminating them from the Orange Bowl.
The 62-26 loss to North Carolina on Saturday likely cost the Miami football team a spot in the Orange Bowl. North Carolina moved up two spots to 15th to become the third highest-ranked team in the ACC behind second-ranked Notre Dame and third-ranked Clemson in the CFP rankings.
If Clemson defeats Notre Dame in the ACC Championship on Saturday the Tigers and Fighting Irish will earn berths in the College Football Playoff.
