Ajay Allen followed Cam Ward’s fourth touchdown pass with a 2-yard, go-ahead score early in the fourth quarter, Damien Martinez added a 30-yard insurance TD run with 4:05 remaining and No. 6 Miami held off Louisville for a wild 52-45 victory.

Ward completed 21 of 32 passes for 319 yards on the way to a school-record seventh consecutive 300-yard passing performance.

Instead of being tied at 45 following Louisville’s fumble return, Miami’s drive continued and two plays later Damien Martinez sealed the victory with a 30-yard touchdown run. The Hurricanes, who entered the week leading all FBS schools in scoring and yards per play, rolled up 541 yards of total offense, including 222 rushing yards.
