On 20 Dec 25, Miami linebacker Mohamed Toure puts an aggressive, but clean, hit on Texas A&M running back Rueben Owens II separating the ball from his reception. This play prevented what would have certainly been the game tying TD in Miami's first CFPO appearance. Toure suffered a concussion on this play, but thankfully left the field under his own power minutes later.

Even crazier that one of our best players this year was on that MTSU team.

Arguably the defining game of the Miami Hurricanes football program, legendary Head Coach Howard Schellenberger celebrates Miami's victory over the Nebraska Cornhuskers on 2 Jan 81.

This led to hiring Richt, who legitimized the program and got he indoor facility funded.

October 3, 1992, a little over a month after Hurricane Andrew. Dan Mowrey of Florida State misses a late FG, securing the win for Miami and keeping national title hopes alive. Shortly thereafter, Miami legend "Headset Guy" runs on the field to taunt Mowrey.

Greatest hit in a big game in the hisstory of our storied Canes. Vanover was never the same player after that. He was down and out for a long time afterwards. Barrow sent him to the Shadow realm.

This dude Lee deserves the season we’re having this year. He really was great for the year we had him. Where’d he come from, UCF or USF???

Trajan Bandy's pick-six against Notre Dame occurred on November 11, 2017, at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida. Playing for the Miami Hurricanes, the true freshman intercepted a pass from quarterback Ian Book.
Game Details
The interception occurred just before halftime, sealing a dominant first half for the Hurricanes, who were up 27-0 at the break. Bandy returned the interception 65 yards for a touchdown, a play that became a memorable moment for the "Turnover Chain" tradition. Miami went on to win the game in a rout with a final score of 41-8.
