The Miami Hurricanes beat the Notre Dame Fighting Irish 41-8 on the field Nov. 11, but they lost to them in the final rankings.
After Alabama beat Georgia in overtime Monday to win the College Football Playoff National Championship, the Associated Press released its final college football poll for the 2017 season.
The Hurricanes, who finished 10-3 after starting the season 10-0, have a No. 13 final AP ranking — two places below Notre Dame, which also finished 10-3 but are ranked 11th in the final AP Poll.
UM’s ranking, however, is its highest ranking in the final AP Poll since 2004.
