Notre Dame vs. Miami live updates: Carson Beck leads Hurricanes into battle with Irish in top-10 showdown

0
No. 6 Notre Dame and No. 10 Miami are set for a Sunday night showdown as college football's Labor Day weekend marathon continue with a seismic clash between two iconic brands. It will mark just the fifth meeting since 1990 -- and first since 2017 -- between a pair of storied programs with lofty 2025 aspirations.

The Fighting Irish are coming off an appearance in the 2025 CFP National Championship and boast an elite running back tandem and loaded defense. Miami, now in Year 4 under coach Mario Cristobal, appears to have amassed the talent and physicality needed to break through after it was was left just outside of the 12-team CFP last season.

But now it's time to show it on the field, and there are questions for both teams to answer, particularly at quarterback. Notre Dame is turning to redshirt freshman CJ Carr, the grandson of legendary former Michigan coach Lloyd Carr. Miami is going with Carson Beck, the Georgia transfer who is coming off surgery on his throwing elbow.

The winner will earn a leg up in the CFP race while the loser will see their margin for error shrink with a long season still ahead.
