team about qualifying for a bowl game with a victory at Virginia, figuring the
Hurricanes had three games left to ensure a .500 record and a chance to play in
the postseason.When Brad Kaaya threw two touchdown passes and Mark Walton ran
for 111 yards and another score Saturday, leading Miami to a 34-14 victory
against Virginia, and bowl eligibility, his players admitted to be delighted,
and to wanting to keep the wins coming,Its awesome. Awesome, right guard Danny
Isadora said. Got to keep winning.They did it for the first time at Virginia
with a balanced attack that produced 222 rushing yards and 228 through the
air.Kaaya hit David Njoku for a 7-yard score and Ahmmon Richards for a
77-yarder, the latter making Kaaya just the second quarterback to throw for more
than 9,000 yards in his career at Miami (6-4, 3-3 Atlantic Coast Conference).
Only Ken Dorsey, with 9,565, has more.Richards touchdown, on a short third-down
route, gave the Hurricanes a 27-14 lead, and the defense did the rest.It feels
great, honestly, the freshman said of qualifying for the postseason. You work so
hard and you want to have a payoff. Its a great way for our seniors to go out,
but right now, were focusing on N.C. State.The Cavaliers (2-8, 1-5) honored
fourth- and fifth-year seniors before their final home game, but lost their
fifth in a row. Virginia trailed just 17-14 at halftime, but mustered only 28
yards in the third quarter as Miami pulled away.Virginia fumbled the ball away
four times, all in the second half.Clearly Im not getting through yet to our
team in those closer moments where the game is kind of going back and forth,
first-year Cavaliers coach Bronco Mendenhall said.Waltons 15-yard run, capped as
he arched his back to reach the end zone, essentially put the game away with
11:17 remaining. It gave the sophomore 21 touchdowns in 23 career games, and 11
touchdowns this season.I think the blocking was good, for the most part, but
there were a few times where he was just ripping through tackles and just wasnt
going to be denied a first down and kept a couple of drives going, Richt
said.THE TAKEAWAYMiami: The Hurricanes reached bowl eligibility by getting stout
performances on both sides of the ball. They rushed for 222 yards and passed for
228, and on defense sacked Virginia starting quarterback Kurt Benkert five
times, including a strip sack by Corn Elder that Joe Jackson recovered.Virginia:
Benkert continued to be restless under pressure and had another rough day. He
completed 16 of 27 passed for 143 yards before being removed in the fourth
quarter. The swap allowed former starter Matt Johns to finish, and he received a
rousing ovation when he entered his final career home game.WHERE THERES
SMOKEVirginias Taquan Smoke Mizzell caught three passes for 27 yards, and became
the first player in ACC history to record 1,500 career rushing yards and 1,500
career receiving yards. He has 1,831 rushing yards (21st all-time at Virginia)
and 1,517 receiving yards (13th).The milestone came on a pass from Johns in the
fourth quarter.One of Johns goals when he got into the game, he said, was to get
Smoke that record. Man, I love that dude. He plays so hard and he caught a
couple passes and got the 10 yards that he needed. Hes one of the best football
players Ill ever play with.UP NEXTMiami makes its first trip to Raleigh, North
Carolina since 2008 to face North Carolina State.Virginia plays at Georgia
Tech.---More AP college football:
