Tenth-seeded Miami became the first double-digit seed in the 12-team era to crash the semifinals, muscling its way through the field by beating defending national champion Ohio State 24-14 on New Year's Eve. Miami will face Ole Miss in the Vrbo Fiesta Bowl on Jan. 8 (7:30 ET, ESPN). Hurricanes coach Mario Cristobal, in his first playoff appearance, faces off against new Rebels coach Pete Golding, who piloted Ole Miss through choppy waters after the soap-opera departure of Lane Kiffin.
