OXFORD, Ohio, Oct. 27 (UPI) -- Kaleb Patterson connected on a 31-yard field goal with 1:24 to play Saturday and Miami-Ohio held on for a 23-20 victory over No. 23 Ohio University.

Patterson's boot came after a 17-yard catch from Nick Harwell and Spencer Treadwell's 30-yard run on the decisive scoring drive.

Zac Dysert's 21-of-36 passing for 311 yards with a touchdown and interception helped the RedHawks (4-4, 3-1 MAC) snap a two-game losing streak.

The Bobcats (7-1, 3-1) were bounced for the first time this season despite getting a 302-yard passing performance from Tyler Tettleton, who also had a rushing touchdown.

Ohio had been off to its best start since going 10-0 in 1968.
