BREAKING: The No. 10 Miami Hurricanes have shocked the defending national champions, Ohio State, with a stunning 24-14 victory in the College Football Playoff quarterfinal at the Cotton Bowl in Arlington, Texas, just hours ago. This unexpected win propels Miami into the final four, marking a significant milestone for the team.
In a game filled with intensity, Miami’s Keionte Scott electrified the crowd with a remarkable 72-yard interception return for a touchdown, solidifying the Hurricanes’ lead. The 12-2 Hurricanes never trailed during the match, defying the odds as they entered the game as 9.5-point underdogs.
This victory is monumental for Miami, who fought hard to secure an at-large berth in the 12-team playoff format.

In contrast, the third-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes concluded their season with a 12-2 record, suffering losses in both the Big Ten title game and now the Cotton Bowl, following an undefeated regular season.
This shocking outcome showcases the unpredictability of college football and the thrilling nature of the playoff system. Fans and analysts alike will be closely watching Miami as they prepare for their next matchup. Can they continue this momentum and secure a spot in the championship game? Only time will tell.
