No. 6 Miami kept its undefeated season rolling with a 52-45 win on the road against Louisville. The Hurricanes are off to their first 7-0 start since 2017 and, with the victory, created more distance in an ACC title race that gains more clarity with each passing week.

Quarterback Cam Ward threw four touchdown passes, wide receivers Sam Brown, Jr. and Xavier Restrepo each topped the 100-yard receiving mark for Miami.

Instead of being tied at 45 following Louisville’s fumble return, Miami’s drive continued and two plays later Damien Martinez sealed the victory with a 30-yard touchdown run. The Hurricanes, who entered the week leading all FBS schools in scoring and yards per play, rolled up 541 yards of total offense, including 222 rushing yards.
