The first half was shaky. The second half was all Miami. Mark Fletcher Jr. rushed for 106 yards and a career-high three touchdowns, Miami's defense was airtight for much of the game and the ninth-ranked Hurricanes pulled away for a 42-7 win over Stanford on Saturday night. Carson Beck - coming off the first four-interception game of his career in last week's loss to Louisville - completed 21 of 28 passes for 189 yards and a touchdown to CJ Daniels for Miami (6-1, 2-1 Atlantic Coast Conference), while Jordan Lyle and Girard Pringle Jr. also ran for touchdowns. It was Miami's biggest victory margin in an ACC game since beating Duke 47-10 on Nov. 27, 2021. "Mark Fletcher showed why he's such a great player and why he's so important to this football team." Miami coach Mario Cristobal said. Miami had touchdowns on six of its last seven possessions; the one drive where it didn't score in that span saw the Hurricanes stopped on a fourth-down try at the Stanford 21. "Proud of the way our guys stuck with it," Cristobal said.

Malachi Toney had 138 all-purpose yards, 73 of them coming on a pair of punt returns for the Hurricanes. Miami passed for 205 yards and rushed for 199, outgaining Stanford 404-144. "That right there was the standard for University of Miami football," Toney said. Cole Tabb rushed for 64 yards for Stanford (3-5, 2-3) in the first-ever meeting between the Hurricanes and the Cardinal. Ben Gulbranson threw for Stanford's lone touchdown and completed five of his first six passes for 31 yards; he was 4-for-15 with two interceptions and only 19 yards the rest of the way. Stanford led 7-0 after one quarter and it was 7-7 at the half. The rest was all Miami, in a reversal of the game that Stanford interim coach Frank Reich - then the Maryland quarterback - had against the Hurricanes in 1984, when he rallied his team out of a 31-0 halftime hole and won 42-40. This time, the Hurricanes outscored the Cardinal 35-0 in the final 30 minutes. Stanford racked up 74 yards on its first drive - capped by a TD - then managed only 25 total yards on its next eight possessions combined. "I thought our defense did a pretty good job in the first half...and then they got after us real good in the second half," Reich said. - Miami/AP College Football

Miami moved back to No. 2 in The Associated Press college football poll on Sunday, Texas Tech has its highest ranking since 2008 and Penn State and Texas fell all the way out of the Top 25 for the first time since 2022 after the two top-10 teams lost to unranked opponents. No. 1 Ohio State was dominant in its win over Minnesota, but its 40 first-place votes were its fewest since ascending to the top five weeks ago. The Hurricanes, who moved ahead of idle Oregon, went from receiving four first-place votes last week to 21 this week after winning at Florida State. Miami also had been No. 2 two weeks ago following an open date and gave up that spot last week after Oregon's overtime win at Penn State.

Oregon, which received the other five first-place votes, was followed by idle No. 4 Mississippi and No. 5 Texas A&M. The Aggies hammered Mississippi State and earned their highest ranking since Jimbo Fisher's 2021 team was No. 5 in early September. Oklahoma slipped from No. 5 to No. 6 despite its 44-0 shutout of Kent State. Indiana, which had an open date, is No. 7 and No. 8 Alabama got a two-spot promotion for its 16-point win over Vanderbilt. No. 9 Texas Tech, which won 35-11 at previously unbeaten Houston, cracked the top 10 for the first time since it was No. 8 in the final regular-season poll in 2008. Georgia moved up two spots to No. 10 after its win over Kentucky. Texas was the AP's preseason No. 1 team and Penn State was No. 2. Both are now out of the rankings. - AP College Football

Miami jumped LSU and Penn State into the No. 2 spot behind Ohio State in The Associated Press college football poll on Sunday while Oklahoma climbed into top 10 for the first time in two years and Indiana and Texas Tech made big moves after lopsided wins over Top 25 opponents. The Hurricanes have beaten two ranked opponents, and they turned in another complete performance in a 19-point home win over Florida to earn their highest ranking since 2017.

Penn State, which had been No. 2 since the preseason, was idle and slipped to No. 3. LSU fell one spot to No. 4 after an easy win over Southeastern Louisiana of the second-tier Football Championship Subdivision. No. 5 Georgia and No. 6 Oregon held their positions and were followed by No. 7 Oklahoma, which beat previously ranked Auburn at home and returned to the top 10 for the first time since it started 7-0 in 2023. Florida State, Texas A&M and Texas round out the top 10. - AP College Football

09/20/25 - Mark Fletcher Jr., Jr/2027, Miami, 6-1, 225 (DS#4 RB) + More +

Mark Fletcher Jr. rushed for 116 yards and a touchdown, Marty Brown rushed for a pair of scores and No. 4 Miami struggled at times before beating Florida 26-7 on Saturday night. Brown had a 2-yard rush to cap the first drive of the game for Miami (4-0), then had a 1-yard plunge with 4:08 left to seal what became the Hurricanes' ninth win over the Gators in the teams' last 11 meetings. Fletcher scored from 1 yard out with 1:57 left. Jadan Baugh had a 7-yard touchdown run for Florida (1-3), off to its worst start since 1986. The loss sent embattled coach Billy Napier's record with the Gators to 20-22, and came on a night where Florida had its fewest total yards in a game in more than 25 years. The Gators were outgained 344-141 and quarterback D.J. Lagway completed 12 of 23 passes for only 61 yards. It was Florida's lowest yardage since managing only 119 against Alabama on Dec. 4, 1999. Miami quarterback Carson Beck completed 17 of 30 passes for 160 yards and an interception.

Beck improved to 3-0 all-time against Florida; in the last 25 years, only fellow former Georgia quarterbacks Jake Fromm and Aaron Murray also had three wins over the Gators as starters. The Hurricanes were fuming after a play early in the third quarter where it appeared Brown - on fourth-and-1 from the Florida 48 - bounced off a pile, kept his legs moving and broke free for what would have been a touchdown and a 19-0 Miami lead with an extra point pending. Southeastern Conference referee David Smith said Brown's forward progress was stopped, taking the score off the board, and Miami punted four plays later. The Gators scored on the ensuing drive, and a game where the Hurricanes thought they had gone up by three touchdowns was suddenly a 13-7 contest. Beck got picked off on the next Miami drive, but the Hurricanes snuffed out that Florida possession by getting a fourth-down stop on the first play of the fourth quarter and holding on to the six-point lead. Florida never got any closer. - Miami/AP College Football

Miami would join Ohio State, Penn State and LSU as a top-four seed in the College Football Playoff based on The Associated Press Top 25 poll released Sunday while Georgia, Oregon, Florida State and Texas would host first-round games. Ohio State, Penn State and LSU remain the Nos. 1, 2 and 3 seeds. Miami moved into the No. 4 seed after moving up a spot in the AP poll. The top four receive first-round byes. The Big Ten and Southeastern Conference each would have four teams in the 12-team field, the Atlantic Coast Conference two and the Big 12 and American one each. South Florida would be in as the highest-ranked Group of Five conference champion based on having the most points of any unranked G5 team. - AP College Football

The last team that started a season with three consecutive wins over AP-ranked opponents was Miami in 1987. And the Hurricanes made sure that didn't change. Carson Beck threw three touchdown passes, Mark Fletcher Jr. rushed for 120 yards and two touchdowns, and No. 5 Miami remained unbeaten with a 49-12 win over No. 18 South Florida on Saturday. It was Miami's biggest victory margin over a ranked opponent since beating Washington 65-7 in 2001, the Hurricanes' most recent national championship season. And it denied USF (2-1) the chance at a third straight ranked win to start this season, following victories over Boise State and Florida. "There was a lot of motivation going into this thing, besides the fact that they were a ranked football team because I have a lot of respect for their coaches and their players,” Miami coach Mario Cristobal said. "This was an in-state game. And those games, you have to play your very best.”

The Hurricanes are 6-0 since the start of last season against in-state opponents, winning those games by an average of 34.5 points. Beck completed 23 of 28 passes for 340 yards and ran for a touchdown for Miami (3-0). Fletcher had a two-TD game for the second consecutive week and Joshua Moore had two first-quarter scoring catches. "The young man's lost three games in his college career,” USF coach Alex Golesh said of Beck, a Georgia transfer. "He's tough. He's gritty. I thought he was super accurate tonight..I think that young man's really, really good.” Byrum Brown completed 20 of 36 passes for 274 yards and a touchdown for USF. Brown threw an interception late in the first half, ending his school-record streak of 252 passes without being picked off. Christian Neptune had a 12-yard touchdown catch for the Bulls, who got 128 yards on four catches from Chas Nimrod. USF had four passes go for more than 25 yards, including 53- and 43-yarders to Nimrod. - Miami/AP College Football

Carson Beck already has found his way into the Miami record book. Beck completed his first 15 passes to break a Miami record, finishing 22 of 24 for 264 yards with two touchdowns as the fifth-ranked Hurricanes eased past Bethune-Cookman 45-3 on Saturday night. Beck's 15 consecutive completions broke a Miami single-game mark that stood for nearly four decades; Vinny Testaverde completed 14 in a row against Oklahoma in 1986. "It's super cool, obviously, to perform at a high level and do things like that," Beck said. CJ Daniels caught both of Beck's touchdown passes, from 40 and 5 yards out.

Beck has gone 185 consecutive passes without an interception, dating to last season when he was with Georgia. "He keeps getting better and better," Miami coach Mario Cristobal said. "I mean, every practice, every week, there's this continued growth and development, and really you see an appetite for more. He just wants to get better. He wants Miami to get to better. He wants to Miami to win. And he's all about team." Mark Fletcher Jr. had two touchdown runs for the Hurricanes (2-0), who reached the end zone on their first five drives and began substituting liberally in the third quarter. Marty Brown and Girard Pringle also had scoring runs for Miami. Timmy McClain completed 13 of 15 passes for 86 yards for Bethune-Cookman (0-2). Juan Dominguez had a 32-yard field goal for the Wildcats. - Miami/AP College Football
