Miami Shuts Down North Texas In 27-14 Bowl Win

FRISCO, Texas– Miami held North Texas scoreless in the second half and posted a convincing 27-14 win in the Frisco Football Classic presented by Ryan Thursday afternoon. Despite missing key starters Sterling Weatherford and Matthew Salopek, the RedHawks (7-6) used a stingy defense to hold the Mean Green (6-7) to 89 rushing yards, well off their average of 246.
 
Brett Gabbert, the game's Most Outstanding Offensive Player, threw two touchdowns and completed 22 of 31 passes for 228 yards, with more than half of those yards going to Jack Sorenson. Sorenson pulled in seven catches for 116 yards, becoming the fourth Miami player all-time to accumulate at least 3,000 career receiving yards. Kenny Tracy had a career-high 92 rushing yards and a touchdown for the Red and White.
