Georgia Tech hands No. 4 Miami first loss of season - ESPN

ATLANTA — Cam Ward and No. 4 Miami finally ran out of second-half comebacks as Haynes King led Georgia Tech to a 28-23 win over the previously unbeaten Hurricanes on Saturday, giving the Yellow Jackets their first win over a top-five team in 15 years.

Fans rushed the field, toppling both goalposts, after the game.

King ran for 93 yards with a touchdown and threw for a score. The Yellow Jackets overcame 347 passing yards and three touchdown passes by Ward, a Heisman Trophy contender.

Miami (9-1, 5-1 Atlantic Coast Conference, No. 4 College Football Playoff) was denied its first 10-0 start since 2017. Georgia Tech (6-4, 4-3) became bowl-eligible and ended a two-game losing streak that came as King, the dual-threat quarterback, was held out with a right shoulder injury.

Miami's unbeaten run through its first nine games included three second-half comebacks. Miami beat Duke 53-31 last week after the Blue Devils led 28-17 in the third quarter. Against Georgia Tech, the Hurricanes' only lead was 10-7 and they trailed the rest of the way after the Yellow Jackets went up 14-10 in the second quarter.

King's 5-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter gave the Yellow Jackets a 28-16 lead. Ward's 38-yard scoring pass to Xavier Restrepo cut the lead to 28-23. Miami's final possession started at its 19 with 1:52 left, but Ward fumbled when sacked by Romello Height, and Jordan van den Berg recovered for Georgia Tech.

Georgia Tech's Jamal Haynes broke through Miami's defensive front for a 65-yard run on the second play of the game and added a 16-yard scoring run two plays later as the Yellow Jackets took a 7-0 lead.

Ward answered with a record-setting 74-yard scoring pass to Elijah Arroyo. It was Ward's school-record 30th touchdown pass
