The College Football Playoffs have made its way into the semifinals today with a hard-hitting matchup between No. 10 Miami Hurricanes and No. 6 Ole Miss Rebels in the 2026 Fiesta Bowl. After taking out college football juggernauts Ohio State, Miami is now only two wins away from their first national title since 1960. However, after defeating No. 3 Georgia in the Sugar Bowl, Ole Miss has plenty of momentum entering today’s game. This will be the schools first meeting since 1951.
