Miami football head coach Mario Cristobal put the blame on the referees for his team's loss against SMU on Saturday.

There were highs and lows on Week 10 of the college football season, including Miami's shocking loss that impacted the College Football Playoff race.
Ohio State, Indiana, Texas A&M, Alabama and Georgia remain atop the AP Top 25 college football poll ahead of the first Playoff rankings.
It seems like Miami's College Football Playoff hopes are done, but the Hurricanes still have a win over a top-10 team (Notre Dame) and dominated a pretty good South Florida team. The Notre Dame win kept Miami ahead of Texas and USC. Neither team holds a win that impressive, and they have flaws in their own right.
Miami outgained SMU in total yards (433-388), but lost the turnover battle 2-1. The Mustangs' defense intercepted Beck in the first period of overtime. SMU's offense scored a touchdown six plays later to earn a 26-20 win over the Hurricanes in front of 35,074 fans at Gerald J. Ford Stadium.
The Gators (3-5, 2-3 SEC) come up just short in pulling off an upset over No. 5 Georgia as UF fell 24-20 to its bitter rival at EverBank Stadium on Saturday, Nov. 1.
After several close ACC wins this season for unbeaten Georgia Tech, the dam finally broke defensively during Saturday night's 48-36 loss at NC State, the second stunner in conference play to highlight Week 10 following SMU's overtime triumph over Miami.
No. 8 Georgia Tech, No. 10 Miami, No. 15 Virginia and No. 16 Louisville all hit the road in the upcoming Atlantic Coast Conference's weekly slate.
