Louisville pulled off one of the biggest upsets of the 2025 college football season Friday, knocking off No. 2 Miami 24-21 to shake up both the ACC title and College Football Playoff races. The win wouldn’t have been possible without the late heroics of linebacker T.J. Capers, who made an incredible defensive play in the final minute.
With Miami facing third-and-1 from the Louisville 31-yard line and 36 seconds remaining, quarterback Carson Beck tried to throw a quick pass near the sideline to move the chains. The ball was deflected at the line of scrimmage, and Capers somehow came down with the interception to seal the game.
The pick gave Louisville its first-ever road win over an AP top-five opponent.
Miami (5-1, 1-1 ACC) entered as the favorite to win the ACC crown, but the loss complicates its path to the conference title game. The Hurricanes remain the betting favorite at +260, per FanDuel, ahead of Georgia Tech (+370) and Virginia (+400). Notably, Miami doesn’t face either of those teams during the regular season.
While Miami’s title hopes remain intact, Beck’s Heisman campaign took a major hit. The senior finished 25 of 35 for 271 yards and four interceptions. Beck opened the week as the Heisman favorite at 3/1 but dropped to 40/1 following the loss.
Louisville (5-1, 2-1) heads to Boston College next Saturday before closing ACC play with games against Virginia Tech, Cal, Clemson and SMU. The Cardinals, now listed at 6/1, have the fifth-best odds to win the ACC after the upset — one fueled by Capers’ game-clinching defensive gem.

Hearn on AJ vs Fury: Why delay the inevitable?
Anthony Joshua fighting Tyson Fury is inevitable, says promoter Eddie Hearn.Fury has indicated he wishes to end his retirement and return to boxing next year, but a trilogy fight with Oleksandr Usyk, rather than a long-awaited showdown with Joshua, is said to be his target. However, promoter Hearn is convinced Fury and Joshua will have to fight each other before either can realistically call for a third Usyk bout."He's a competitor just like AJ, the only person that's beat Tyson Fury is Oleksandr Usyk and he's beat him twice and he's beat him fair and square," Hearn told Sky Sports.

Velká výzva. Oktagon bude znovu atakovat světový rekord
Oktagon tak pokračuje v rostoucím trendu pořádání galavečerů na fotbalových stadionech. Dosud má za sebou tři takové akce, přičemž po letošním turnaji v pražském Edenu se organizace podruhé představí ve Frankfurtu. Právě tam loni stanovila světový divácký rekord na MMA akcích, když na stadion Deutsche Bank Park dorazilo 59 148 fanoušků.„Loni jsme ve Frankfurtu dokázali něco, co se předtím nikomu nepovedlo – uspořádali jsme největší MMA turnaj na světě,“ prozradil spolumajitel a promotér organizace Ondřej Novotný. „Byl to okamžik, kdy jsme si sami sobě potvrdili, že žádný sen není příliš velký.
