The Miami Hurricanes football team, representing the University of Miami, has been a powerhouse in college football since its founding in 1926, currently competing in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC). The program boasts five AP national championships (1983, 1987, 1989, 1991, and 2001) and two Heisman Trophy winners, Vinny Testaverde (1986) and Gino Torretta (1992). With a storied history, the team has compiled a 688–394–19 record and sent 11 players to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, including legends like Jim Kelly, Michael Irvin, and Ray Lewis. The Hurricanes played at the iconic Miami Orange Bowl from 1937 to 2007 before moving to Hard Rock Stadium in 2008. In December 2021, the team appointed Mario Cristobal as head coach on a 10-year, $80 million contract, signaling a new era for the program. The team's name, adopted in 1927, is said to reference the devastating 1926 hurricane that delayed its first season.
