Hurricanes star quarterback Cam Ward said his first-half performance has just been ‘mid’ despite being one of the nation’s top quarterbacks.

Hurricanes linebacker Wesley Bissainthe laid out a heavy hit on Cal quarterback Fernando Mendoza on third down with just less than two minutes left to play that was reviewed for targeting. Ultimately, it was deemed a clean hit and the Golden Bears punted. Miami scored the go-ahead touchdown on the next drive to pull out the 39-38 win.
