We are 9 and 5 against the #1 team in the country since 1980. We had a great streak from 1981 to 1991.
In 1988 Jimmy Johnson gave #1 FSU and Deion Sanders the biggest *** whooping a #1 team has ever received in recent memory smoking them 31-0.

The two rebirths and ascends of Miami Hurricanes Football happened 20 years apart at the beginning of a decade with Howard in 1980 and Butch in 2000. Well it is the beginning of a decade 20 years later. The jury is still out for Diaz and company. The latest staff additions, results and recruiting are exciting and very promising.

Here comes #1 Clemson on Saturday. This game won't define the trajectory of the program but will reveal our progress. We have a unique opportunity on 10/10 with a transcendental QB in King. I still see a close game with an opportunity to pull the upset.

most of those games we non conference or bowl games. Only FSU was on the Schedule in any capacity.

would like to see our win record when we were number 1
 
The 95 Nebraska game the refs won. That was the second most disappointing game of my UM attendance career. 1st being be OSU in the Fiesta of course. Also refs that won.
