MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Ajay Allen bought the go-in advance rating on a 3-property operate in the next time beyond regulation, and shorthanded Miami finished the recreation on a fourth-down prevent to stun Clemson 28-20 on Saturday night time.
Emory Williams, enjoying in spot of hurt Miami quarterback Tyler Van Dyke, finished 24 of 33 passes for 151 yards and a landing for the Hurricanes (5-2, 1-2 Atlantic Coast Meeting). Williams engineered two scoring drives in the fourth to erase a 17-7 deficit.
Cade Klubnik related with Jake Briningstool on a pair of landing passes for Clemson (4-3, 2-3). The Tigers turned the ball over a few occasions in the initial 50 %, and paid out for that.
Allen also bought the 2-stage conversion to place all the force on Clemson in the next OT. On the game’s last enjoy, needing no extra than a lawn for the stop zone, Klubnik faked a handoff and rolled left — only to have no probability of finding past Miami linebacker Corey Flagg, who built the deal with and the Hurricanes sprinted onto the discipline in celebration.
Van Dyke walked with a slight limp when he entered the stadium, and it became apparent about an hour before the game that he wasn’t going to play. And Williams struggled mightily for much of the sport, obtaining only 31 yards on his initial 10 completions.
But he stepped up at the finish, as did Miami’s protection, and the Hurricanes’ two-sport slide is over.
Discipline aims capped just about every team’s to start with sequence immediately after regulation Jonathan Weitz kicked a 31-yarder for Clemson, Andy Borregales related from 35 yards for Miami to tie it at 20 and deliver the game to a 2nd overtime.
Clemson’s 17-7 guide in the fourth was erased by a pair of sustained drives by a Miami offense that found some everyday living.
Williams observed Young from 11 yards out with 8 minutes still left in regulation to get Miami in a field target — capping a 15-engage in, 75-property generate. And Borregales tied the video game with 1:51 remaining, immediately after a 10-enjoy, 43-lawn drive that followed the Hurricanes forcing Clemson into a three-and-out.
The decline means Clemson coach Dabo Swinney has to wait around at minimum one extra 7 days just before getting to be the school’s outright chief in wins. He continues to be tied with Frank Howard for the most in Tigers background with 165.
