Saturday, December 1, 2001 ABC's College Football Saturday No. 1 Miami 26, Virginia Tech 24 Jeremy Shockey and the 'Canes are headed to Pasadena. There's no stopping Miami. The Hurricanes are headed to Pasadena to play for their fifth national championship. They have a little luck to thank for that after hanging on for a 26-24 victory over Virginia Tech when Ernest Wilford dropped a pass from Grant Noel on a two-point conversion with six minutes left that would have tied it for the Hokies. From there, the 'Canes defense tightened up and Ed Reed picked off his second pass of the game to complete a perfect 11-0 regular season and secure a bid to the Rose Bowl. Box score ABC Sports Online bowl projections BCS standings Big 12 Championship game: No. 7 Colorado 39, No. 3 Texas 37 Schedule Statistics Roster Team page Just call the Colorado Buffaloes the Rose Bowl elimination squad. One week after erasing Nebraska's road to the national title game, they knocked Texas out of the way, too. Chris Brown ran for three touchdowns as the Buffs turned Texas quarterback Chris Simms' four first-half turnovers into 22 points, then held off a rally to beat the Longhorns 39-37 Saturday night for their first Big 12 championship. Major Applewhite nearly rallied the 'Horns to victory, but a costly running into the kicker penalty with four minutes to go ended their chances.

Oregon already had secured a spot in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, but the victory gave the Ducks their first outright Pac-10 title since 1994, and with Florida losing, they still have a chance to go to Pasadena. UO held Ken Simonton to 86 yards, keeping him short of 1,000 for the year for the first time in his career. Box score Harrington: Who knows about the BCS?

The victory may have been the last for Davie, whose job status has been questioned during most of the Irish's disappointing 5-6 season and reports said he would be fired shortly after the game. Davie, who was given a five-year extension last year, said he would never resign as coach.
