College football scores, results: Miami tops Notre Dame in last-minute thriller

After a drama-filled Saturday, college football’s opening weekend kept right on rolling with more intrigue on Sunday.

No. 13 South Carolina and Virginia Tech got things started in another SEC vs. ACC clash. Gamecocks QB LaNorris Sellers showed flashes of brilliance in a 24-11 win over the Hokies, but it was vintage Beamer Ball that put South Carolina over the top with a game-changing 80-yard punt return by Vicari Swain. That’s right, Gamecocks coach Shane Beamer used his legendary dad’s style to beat his former team.

In the evening game, No. 6 Notre Dame and No. 10 Miami played out a thriller at Hard Rock Stadium. The Hurricanes were in control throughout before a late rally by the Irish tied things up at 24. But Miami kicker Carter Davis drilled a 47-yard field goal with just over a minute left in the game and the Hurricanes defense held on for a 27-24 win.
