CLEMSON 40, NO. 8 MIAMI 37 (OT): Kyle Parker threw a 26-yard touchdown pass to Jacoby Ford in overtime, giving Clemson a 40-37 win over Miami on Saturday night in Miami.

Matt Bosher kicked a 22-yard field goal on Miami's overtime possession, but on third-and-11, Parker's third TD pass of the night gave the Tigers (4-3, 3-2 ACC) their first win over a ranked opponent in nine games -- and dealt Miami's ACC hopes a serious blow. C.J. Spiller had a 90-yard kickoff return and a school-record 310 all-purpose yards for Clemson.

Jacory Harris threw for two touchdowns for Miami (5-2, 2-2), but also threw three interceptions.

Since the start of the 1985 season, Miami is 136-2 when scoring 34 or more points.

It was the third meeting of these teams since Miami joined the ACC; all three went to overtime, and all three have been won by the road team.

NO. 11 GEORGIA TECH 24, VIRGINIA 9: Georgia Tech beat the last team with an unbeaten record in conference play, rushing for 362 yards and taking charge of the Coastal Division.

Josh Nesbitt ran for 82 yards and threw for 85, but he attempted only two passes in Georgia Tech's four touchdown drives, including a 10-play, 60-yard march in the second quarter; a game-draining 18-play, 82-yard marathon that took up the first 10:47 of the third quarter and an 11-play, 66-yard one to put the game away in the fourth.

Georgia Tech (7-1, 5-1) broke an eight-game Charlottesville, Va., losing streak, winning at Virginia for the first time since 1990, the year the Yellow Jackets claimed a share of the national title.

The Cavaliers (3-4, 2-1) had a three-game winning streak snapped.

NOTRE DAME 20, BOSTON COLLEGE 16: Golden Tate had 11 catches for 128 yards and two touchdowns to lead host Notre Dame to a victory over Boston College, ending a six-game losing streak to the Eagles.

Notre Dame (5-2) came up with three interceptions in the second half, the final one with 98 seconds left. The last five games the Fighting Irish had played were decided in the final minute.

The Eagles (4-3) repeatedly burned the Notre Dame defense as Dave Shinskie threw for a season-high 279 yards and a touchdown, but the Irish came up with big plays, including two interceptions by Kyle McCarthy.

Jimmy Clausen was 26 of 39 passing for 246 yards for Notre Dame.
