No. 16 Miami rolls past slumping Virginia, 52-17

No. 16 Miami rolls past slumping Virginia, 52-17
TIM REYNOLDS, Nov 7, 2009
A defense that couldn't stop anything a week ago was suddenly airtight. An oft-injured running back had the best game of his career. And a punt returner somehow evaded seven would-be tacklers on his way to a touchdown. For No. 16 Miami, everything worked.

That was made apparent after back-to-back losses to Georgia Tech and Duke.

The Yellow Jackets' triple option offense ran for 362 yards, while Duke's pass-heavy attack amassed 343 yards through the air.
