First Quarter


The first quarter set the tone for Miami's strong performance, as they quickly put up 10 points on the board. Carson Beck led the offensive charge with precise passing, completing several key throws that advanced his team downfield efficiently.

Akheem Mesidor was instrumental in this effort, recording a sack and forcing a fumble that disrupted NC State's offensive rhythm. On offense, Malachi Toney made significant contributions with two touchdown receptions that extended Miami’s lead to 24-0 by halftime.


Third Quarter
