Miami Resurgence Giving New Life to Great College Football Rivalry

For two decades, the Miami-Florida State rivalry was known as one of the best, fiercest and most nationally relevant rivalries in American sports.

The Hurricanes won five national titles between 1983 and 2001 and established themselves as one of college football's most dominant programs. Meanwhile, the Seminoles won two titles of their own in 1993 and 1999, won 10 or more games for 14 straight years from 1987-2000 and finished in the Top Five in each of those seasons.

"It's one of the best rivalries in all of college football," former Florida State quarterback (1992-1995) and current ESPN analyst Danny Kanell said.
