De'Von Achane led Miami's rushing attack with 77 yards over fifteen attempts but ultimately fell short of finding the end zone.

Despite these individual performances, turnovers proved costly for Miami; Raheem Mostert and Alec Ingold each lost fumbles which hindered offensive momentum. Additionally, while Tyler Huntley managed to throw for one touchdown without interceptions, completing only about half of his passes indicated challenges in maintaining consistent offensive drives.
