Chris Brazzell II made a diving 16-yard touchdown catch on a pass from Nico Iamaleava midway through the fourth quarter as No. 11 Tennessee beat visiting No. 7 Alabama 24-17 on Saturday.

Dylan Sampson rushed for 139 yards and two touchdowns for the Volunteers (6-1, 3-1 SEC). The win keeps Tennessee in the hunt for a College Football Playoff spot.

The Crimson Tide (5-2, 2-2) have their work cut out for them the rest of the season. Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe struggled, connecting on 25 of 44 passes for 239 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions. Alabama rushed for just 89 yards compared to Tennessee’s 214.

Trailing 21-17, Alabama took over possession on its own 30 with 2:25 left in regulation. An unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on wide receiver Kendrick Law stymied the Crimson Tide’s drive and allowed Tennessee to stretch the lead to seven with a field goal.

The Volunteers grabbed a 14-10 lead, their first of the game, with one minute left in the third when Sampson barreled in from three yards.

NO. 6 MIAMI 52, LOUISVILLE 45 >> 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 the visiting Hurricanes held on for a wild victory.

The Hurricanes (7-0, 3-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) are off to their best start since beginning 10-0 in 2017.

Miami withstood several Louisville rallies from double-digit deficits, the last of which was Tyler Shough’s 4-yard TD pass to Duke Watson that tied the game at 38 early in the fourth.

Ward completed 21 of 32 passes for 319 yards. Shough was 31 of 51 for 342 yards and four TDs.

NO. 10 CLEMSON 48, VIRGINIA 31 >> Cade Klubnik threw for 308 yards and three touchdowns as the Tigers won their sixth straight with a home victory over the Cavaliers.

NO. 12 NOTRE DAME 31, GEORGIA TECH 13 >> Riley Leonard bolstered the Fighting Irish’s playoff hopes by rushing for two touchdowns in a win in Atlanta.

Jeremiyah Love added a TD run and Adon Shuler scored on a 36-yard interception return for Notre Dame (6-1). The Fighting Irish held Georgia Tech (5-3) to 64 rushing yards.

Notre Dame extended its winning streak to five games.
