The Hurricanes had a chance to score the game-tying touchdown in the game’s final minutes, but an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty backed them up.

Despite racing to an early 21-0 lead in the regular-season finale, quarterback Cam Ward and the Miami Hurricanes were knocked out of contention for the ACC title game Saturday, falling 42-38 at the Syracuse Orange.

Devin Grant's defensive touchdown helped Syracuse overcome a 21-point deficit to beat No. 6 Miami, ruining the Cam Ward's ACC title game hopes.
