Miami delivered a dominant 24–14 statement win over Ohio State at AT&T Stadium, with the Hurricanes' defense setting the tone early. Keionte Scott's 72-yard pick-six in the second quarter helped Miami build a 14–0 lead, and despite the Buckeyes cutting it to 17–14 in the fourth, CharMar Brown's late touchdown run sealed the victory. Quarterback Carson Beck and the Hurricanes' opportunistic defense proved too much for Ohio State, handing the Buckeyes a disappointing defeat.
