No. 1 Miami Stays Unbeaten, Survives North Carolina Scare

The No. 1 Miami Hurricanes preserved their undefeated season with a 38-35 victory over the North Carolina Tar Heels on Saturday night, avoiding a major upset and improving to 8-0. The win sets up a highly anticipated matchup with Notre Dame next week.

Malachi Toney and the Hurricanes trailed entering the fourth quarter but rallied to secure the win, keeping their perfect record intact. The Tar Heels pushed the top-ranked team to the brink, but Miami's late surge proved decisive.

The victory moves Miami to 8-0 on the season, with a showdown against Notre Dame on the schedule next week. The Hurricanes will look to carry their momentum into that matchup as they continue their pursuit of a perfect season.
