Miami Hurricanes Secure Victory Over Wake Forest

The No. 8 Miami Hurricanes secured a crucial 42-14 victory over Wake Forest, keeping their hopes alive for the ACC Championship Game and a potential College Football Playoff berth. Although Miami led just 20-14 for much of the second half, a late surge of 22 unanswered points showcased their offensive capabilities, while their defense notably shut out Wake Forest in the second half. Quarterback Cam Ward played a pivotal role, passing for 280 yards and breaking school records for single-season passing yards and completions. The win improved Miami's record to 10-1, with a key matchup against Syracuse next week determining their fate in the ACC title race. The Hurricanes’ performance has drawn mixed reviews, with questions about their consistency despite a strong record. If they clinch the ACC title, it would mark a historic achievement for the program since joining the conference in 2004.
