Under rainy skies at Hard Rock Stadium on Saturday night, No. 4 Miami took on Florida for a battle of the Sunshine State. In a defensive clash, the Hurricanes scored 13 points in the fourth quarter, ousting the Gators 26-7.

Up 13-7, midway through the fourth quarter, Miami had the ball at its 20-yard line, looking for one final drive to put the Gators away. After an offensive struggle in the second and third quarters, the ’Canes relied on their physicality in the trenches.

The seven-minute drive spanned 13 plays, much in part to Miami’s running game featuring Mark Fletcher Jr.
