Miami hasn't been great the past 15 or so years but I recall the way some of these lowly schools and their fans acted over that time (App state, arkansas state, ACC basketball schools, the list goes on). That doesn't happen unless you're hated.

Those days were such fun!
Always "Us" against the world.
Can't wait to get back to fill in another number in that Top Ten List. Maybe UM could be #1, #3, #6, and #8 on the same list!

Are we talking other fans or ACC officials?
Cause the max level referee hate is indisputable.

Seems a lot of people are just going on the headline and not actually clicking / reading the article.
The 1986 Miami Hurricanes were absolutely the most-hated college football team of all time; the fatigues and steak-fry walk-out at the 1987 Fiesta Bowl absolutely solidified that. 99.9% of the nation cheered when Vinny tossed that fifth interception and "good guys" Penn State won it all and gave Joe Paterno his second ring.
Usually think this off-season lists are stupid (which this is) and off-base (which this one isn't). Actually an impressive list. USC (2005) was definitely hated—The Bush Push at South Bend, the half-title in 2003 and all that three-peat and dynasty talk (with smarmy Matt Leinart and teflon Reggie Bush, who was getting away with everything back then—until he wasn't.)
Ohio State (2002) should've been #3 on that list—as everyone outside of Columbus hates the Buckeyes and that smug team with Tressel and Clarett was just awful; winning it all on a technicality. Much more deplorable than Auburn (2010) or Florida State (2014).
Nice call with Florida (1996) as Spurrier whined his way through that season; crying about late hits on Wuerffel in the 24-21 loss to Florida State during the regular season and then getting a rematch in the Sugar Bowl. (Had undefeated #2 Arizona State beaten #4 Ohio State in the Rose, the Gators don't get a title.)
Notre Dame (1993) was awful—but (1988) could've made that list, too. Not a bad call with Oklahoma (2017) as the Baker Mayfield hatred was real, but he was really the only villain on that squad. Otherwise forgettable outside of him.

Florida (2008) and Notre Dame (1988) could've easily been on there. Should've made it a Top 20 list and added a few programs two or three times. Seems they limited their Top 10 to one entry per school.
Miami (1990) would've absolutely made a longer list as that Cotton Bowl rout of Texas (that launches The Miami Rule regarding excessive celebration penalties) made that team a hated one, for sure.

I seem to recall 2005 USC sucked off by ESPN on the regular in ways that we never were. They had celebrities like Snoop Dogg rocking their gear and attending their games. They were more like NCAAF darlings than a hated team -- certainly not the 2nd most hated ever.

I'll say it again, CFB needs Miami to be relevant to play the villain role, makes for better ratings. Dabo is a nice guy and Saban is a douche but his players are never hated enough to play the villain role.
People always say Miami is overrated but it's not our fault we have one of the biggest brands in CFB and are talked about coming off a 7-6 season just as much as if we went undefeated.
