The University of Miami Football team is recognized as one of the top programs in the nation. This is for good reason as well. The Hurricanes have a history of success. They have won 5 National Titles over the years and have shown that they can field a solid team year in and year out.

Over the history of the University they have managed to win 64 percent of their games. The record for the school over the years has been 552-307-19. They have an interesting history of fielding some of the most talented players in the nation at a very high rate. This may not show in the relatively low total of 5 National Championships, but it does show in the incredibly high total of 35 Consensus All-Americans.

The team is specifically recognized for its incredible athleticism. Florida is known for being one of the best areas to recruit in the Nation. This has contributed to the success of the Hurricanes, Gators and Seminoles over the years. The Hurricanes have an incredibly athletic team each year. This has not always contributed to high totals of wins, but it always has made them an exciting team to watch.

The Hurricanes ...
... are spirited rivals with the Florida State Seminoles. These two teams have had countless battles over the years that have come down to the wire. When we say that these battles have come down to the wire we mean that they have been decided on a final field goal attempt repeatedly. While these kickers may kick at a high percentage each year, it seems that these top kickers have never been able to punch in the field goal to win the game. This trend has taken place numerous times over the last two decades.

The first championship came in 1983. The team was led by Howard Schnellenberger. The team was led by Bernie Kosar all the way to the Orange Bowl where they would face off against the Nebraska Cornhuskers. The team managed to jump ahead to a 17-0 lead and managed to hold off the Cornhuskers in order to record their first ever National Championship.

The next championship would come under the command of Jimmy Johnson. Many people know Johnson for his success with the Cowboys, but it all began with Miami. The team had players such as Michael Irvin and Steve Walsh. The team went undefeated that season and managed to take out the Oklahoma Sooners in the Orange Bowl.

The team continued success under Dennis Ericksen. Ericksen managed to lead the team to 2 National Championships in 3 years. They won their first under his reign in a Sugar Bowl victory to cap off a season of 11-1. This Championship came in 1989. The next one was the 2nd undefeated season for the Hurricanes in a 5 year span as they won in the Orange Bowl to seal a 12-0 season.

The team continued to compete, but they were not able to take home another championship until Larry Coker came. Coker led the team to a Rose Bowl victory in 2001 to cap off yet another 12-0 season for the Hurricanes.
