What's This About?

This post highlights the dramatic finish of the College Football Playoff semifinal at the Fiesta Bowl, where the **Miami Hurricanes** beat **Ole Miss** to advance to the national championship game (the ‘natty’). According to NCAA coverage, Miami escaped with a 31-27 win, clinched on a late, clutch touchdown run by quarterback **Carson Beck**, who threw for 268 yards with a passing TD and sealed the game on the ground.[2] The clip and caption celebrate Miami’s upset run as a No. 10 seed at-large team and the narrative that “The U is back,” after years away from the national-title picture.[1][2] The win also sets up history, as Miami will become the first team to play a CFP championship game in its home stadium, Hard Rock Stadium.[2]

🔥Why It's Trending

The post is trending because it captures an iconic, last-play-style game-winning touchdown that sent Miami to the CFP national championship, a high-stakes, nationally watched event.[2] It taps into strong fan emotion around Miami’s return to elite status, the drama of Ole Miss falling just short, and the historical context of Miami playing for a title at home, all of which drive high engagement, sharing, and debate.[1][2] The timing—immediately following the semifinal thriller—also coincides with peak social conversation around the College Football Playoff.
