No. 3 Miami defeats archrival Florida State 43-35 in double overtime, surviving a late comeback and holding on after two sudden, dramatic finishes. Darian Mensah throws for 326 yards and three touchdowns as the Hurricanes improve to an undefeated 6-0.
Multiple outlets describe a back-and-forth game that swings late in regulation and again in overtime. Florida State leads by seven in the fourth before Miami ties and then takes a late lead, forcing overtime. Yahoo and others also highlight social-media reaction to the ending and note it is seen as a controversial double-overtime finish, though the result is consistent across reports.
While ESPN and the sports outlets agree on the game’s key statistics and the final score, their emphasis varies: ESPN and Post focus on Miami’s survival of “Hail Mary” moments and overall thriller nature; another Yahoo piece frames it around Florida State’s missed opportunities, and another notes Miami’s potential to move toward the No. 1 ranking following the win.
