THIS WEEK’S GAME: The Randy Shannon Era has begun, and after an impressive 31-3 season-opening victory over Marshall, things get tougher when the Miami Hurricanes make their first road tripof the season to face the Oklahoma Sooners on Saturday in Norman, Okla. The game will be national-ly televised on ABC.

This is the first meeting between Miami and Oklahoma since the 1980s, when the two schools hadthree memorable matchups, with the Hurricanes winning all three games. In 1985, Troy Aikman wasinjured and Jamelle Holieway took over. Although Miami won the game 27-14 in Norman, Okla., theSooners won the national championship that season. A year later, in 1986, the two schools were rankedNo. 1 and 2, and the game matched Vinny Testaverde and Michael Irvin against Brian Bosworth andCo., with Miami winning 28-16 in a classic and Testaverde throwing for four touchdowns. A year later,on January 1, 1998, the teams met in the Orange Bowl Classic for the national championship, withMiami prevailing 20-14 to win its second national title. The two schools also played in 1973 and 1975,with Oklahoma winning both times.

Oklahoma won its 2007 season opener 79-10 over North Texas at home. Redshirt freshman quarter-back Sam Bradford passed for 363 yards and three touchdowns, and wide receiver Juaqu Iglesiascaught seven passes for 128 yards, with Malcolm Kelly making four catches for 118 yards and two TDs.The Sooners also gained 265 yards on the ground and held North Texas to 232 total yards.

This is the first game of a home-and-home series. The Hurricanes will host Oklahoma on Sept. 12,2009 at Dolphin Stadium.

The Hurricanes have lost their last two road openers, at Louisville in 2006 and at Florida State in2005. Prior to that, UM had won four consecutive road openers.

In their season opener, the Hurricanes were led by a opportunistic defense and a powerful runninggame. The defense held Marshall to 234 yards while intercepting four passes and making six sacks,the team’s most in three years. DL Vegas Franklin recorded two sacks, DE Eric Moncur had 1.5 sacks,and All-America DE Calais Campbell had five tackles and the team’s first interception by a defensivelineman since 2001. The UM running game totaled 260 yards rushing, with true freshman Graig Cooperrushing for 116 yards in his first collegiate game and sophomore Javarris James gaining 99 yards andscoring two touchdowns. Cooper’s performance was the best ever by a Miami running back in his debutgame.THE OPPONENT: Oklahoma is 1-0, after having defeated North Texas 79-10 last Saturday in Norman,Okla. In 2006, Oklahoma finished 11-3 and won the Big 12 championship before losing in the FiestaBowl to Boise State in that thrilling come-from-behind victory for the Broncos. Oklahoma has won sevennational championships, its last in 2000.THE SERIES: This will be the six meeting between the two schools, and Miami has a 3-2 lead in theseries, having won the last three games. In the last meeting, Miami won the 1987 national champi-onship with a 20-14 win over Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl Classic.THE COACHES: Randy Shannon is 1-0 at Miami. Oklahoma’s Bob Stoops is 87-19 in nine seasons.A HURRICANES VICTORY OVER THE SOONERS WOULD: Give Miami a 2-0 record and thrust themback into the top 20 for the first time in a year. It would also give Miami a 2-0 start for the first time since2004.

MIAMI PLAYERS AMONG BEST IN THE NATION ACADEMICALLYThe University of Miami is known as a “Pipeline to the Pros” for the number of football players itsends on to the NFL. However, it is also one of the nation’s finest educational institutions, and theachievements of the football program bears that out:

UM’s football program tied for 10th in the NCAA in the 2006-07 Academic Progress Rate.1. Stanford 9842. Navy 9823. Duke 9784. Boston College 976

Rice 9766. Air Force 9757. Rutgers 9718. Southern Mississippi 9709. Auburn 967

10. Miami 966Wake Forest 966

In 2006, Miami placed more players on the ACC Academic Football Team than any other school inthe conference. Miami led the way with eight players who either had a 3.0 G.P.A. for fall semester orwho maintained a 3.0 cumulative grade point average during his career. UM was followed by Duke andBoston College with six players, and Florida State with four.

The eight players cited for their academics in 2006 were: G Andrew Bain, OT Jason Fox, TE GregOlsen, PK Jon Peattie, S Kenny Phillips, LB Darryl Sharpton, WR Sam Shields and C AnthonyWollschlager. Five of those players return in 2007: Bain, Fox, Phillips, Sharpton and Shields.

Miami has 13 student-athletes on this year’s team who have already graduated, a total that couldlead the country for the second time in three years (no school has had more than 11 graduates in thelast four years). Already graduated from UM are: long snapper Ross Abramson (business manage-ment), G Andrew Bain (psychology), PK Grant Brown (sport administration), LB Glenn Cook (market-ing), S Willie Cooper (liberal arts), LB Tavares Gooden (liberal arts), WR Darnell Jenkins (liberal arts, GDerrick Morse (criminology), OL John Rochford (business management), CB Glenn Sharp (sportadministration), OL Cyrim Wimbs (liberal arts), QB Kyle Wright (sport administration) and PKFrancesco Zampogna (language studies).

In the last two years (2005-2006), Miami graduated a total of 37 football players (fall and spring com-mencement totals), a number that led the NCAA in that time.

In 2006, Miami ranked second in the country (tied with Notre Dame), with nine graduates behind onlyAuburn, which had 11 graduates.

In 2005, Miami led the nation with 11 graduates on the football team.

COACHES AT THEIR ALMA MATERSMiami’s Randy Shannon is one of 18 head coaches working at their alma maters. The Hurricanes faced onewhen UM defeated Marshall and head coach Mark Snyder in the season opener. Shannon will face two moreof those coaches this season in Virginia Tech’s Frank Beamer and Virginia’s Al Groh.

SHANNON’S DEFENSE CARRIES ONRandy Shannon’s defense finished the 2006 season ranked seventh in the NCAA in total defense, fourth inrushing defense, 13th in scoring defense and 40th in pass defense. Those rankings would be the envy ofalmost any defensive coordinator, but they are similar to how Shannon’s defenses ranked in his six seasonsas the defensive coordinator prior to being named head coach. His defenses led the country in scoring orpassing defense in four of his six years as the DC.

Shannon’s defenses have ranked among the NCAA’s top 10 in five of the last six seasons. OnlyLouisiana State can match that success rate, with Virginia Tech making four appearances in the NCAA’s top10 over the last six seasons. The 2007 defense should continue that trend under new defensive coordina-tor Tim Walton. With seven defensive starters, UM has already gotten off to a good start this season.

UM BEGINS 2007 OUT OF THE POLLSThe Miami Hurricanes were not ranked in the pre-season polls by neither AP nor USAToday/Coaches for the first time since 1998. Theydid however, receive votes that would placed them28th in the Coaches poll and 31st in the AP poll.

Here’s how Miami has ranked in the AP preseasonand final polls since 1983 (24 seasons):

2006 RUN DEFENSE WAS MIAMI’S BEST EVERAlthough Miami has a strong defensive reputation, the 2006 run defense set a school record by allowing anaverage of only 67.85 yards per game, breaking the previous mark of 69.1 yards per game in 1989. TheHurricanes allowed only one 100-yard rusher all season. Not since 1994 had a Hurricane defense given upfewer than 100 rushing yards per game. Below is a list of the top five UM rush defenses.

If the talent on a a team’s run defense is dictated by who returns from the previous year, then Miamishould be just fine in 2007. All-America defensive end Calais Campbell returns for his junior season, andalthough Campbell had 10.5 sacks last year, he says he actually likes playing against the run more than hedoes against the pass.

Next to Campbell on the D-line is DT Teraz McCray, who started eight games last season, making 25tackles and two sacks. DL coach Clint Hurtt plans to rotate four defensive tackles this year. Joining McCraywill be junior Dwayne Hendricks, junior Antonio Dixon and redshirt freshman Josh Holmes.

The other starting defensive end will be Eric Moncur, who started the first three games of 2006 beforebeing sidelined by a knee injury. Campbell says Moncur is an even more gifted pass rusher than he is.

JAMES AND COOPER = THUNDER AND LIGHTNINGMiami’s running backs Javarris James and Graig Cooper are quickly proving that they are one of the bestrunning back tandems in the country.

In the season opener, they combined for 215 yards rushing and two touchdowns. James, the youngercousin of former UM great and current NFL star Edgerrin James, ran for 99 yards on 14 carries (7.1-yardaverage) and scored two touchdowns. Cooper, a true freshman from Memphis, had the best debut ever fora Miami running back, gaining 116 yards on 12 carries (9.7-yard average).

Last year as a true freshman, James led the team with 802 yards rushing, which ranked second on theschool’s all-time list for rushing yards by a true freshman behind only Clinton Portis (838 yards in 1999).

EDGERRIN WAITING FOR JAVARRISArizona Cardinals running back Edgerrin James said recently that he hopes that he plays long enough inthe NFL to share the same backfield as his younger cousin, UM running back Javarris James.

“One of my dreams is to play on the same team with Baby J,” Edgerrin said recently. “That’s the onething I’ve been wanting, so hopefully I can hold on. That’s the first person I’ll be willing to be a backup to.”

Edgerrin James, who turned 29 in August, has played nine years in the NFL, rushing for 10,385 yardssince 1999. Javarris rushed for 802 yards in 2005, the second-most ever by a Miami true freshman.

A year ago, Edgerrin said this of Javarris: “He’s going to be the best back to come out of UM. He's aheadof his time. He's had hands-on coaching and everything. He's watched this for so long, sat in the backgroundand watched me come through, (Clinton) Portis, Willis (McGahee). He's watched everybody. Every playerthat comes through, he knows their strength and what he likes about their game. You can see that he's goingto be the best player because he has the short game, the mid-range game and the end game where he'sgoing to take it to the house. That's the total package. He wants to be the best, that's the main thing.

“The difference between Baby J and myself is that Baby J is going to take it to the house a lot. He hasthat Eric Dickerson stride that's going to get you a bunch of big runs. That's the thing I've been telling peo-ple – this guy is going to take a lot of big runs to the house. What he has is natural. He has a lot of thingsthat are part of his game that are going to make him the best back to come out of UM.

“A lot of people probably thought, `Well, he's kin to Edgerrin and they just kind of pub him up and it's abunch of hype.' But now you can believe the hype.”

MIAMI FOOTBALL MOVES TO DOLPHIN STADIUM IN 2008On August 21, the University of Miami announced that the Hurricanes football team will move its

home games to Dolphin Stadium beginning with the 2008 football season. One of the top state-of-the-artstadiums in the country, the facility will provide student-athletes and fans with a first-class experience bothon and off the field.

"This is a painful and sad decision. We all love the Orange Bowl, its history and traditions," saidUniversity of Miami President Donna E. Shalala. "Mayor Diaz and the Commissioners of the City of Miamimade an extraordinary effort to identify funds and design a renovation. But in the end, it wasn't enough."

Home of the Miami Dolphins, the FedEx Orange Bowl and four Super Bowls, the stadium is a state-of-the-art facility that boasts all-chairback seats, new high-definition video boards, among the largest incollegiate and pro sports, four 103-inch plasma display boards including one of the world's largest plasmaTVs, over 1,600 television monitors throughout the stadium and an all-new LED ribbon board. A $300 mil-lion renovation project, currently underway, will add 360,000 square feet of enclosed space to the facility,making Dolphin Stadium one of the premier facilities in the country.

Many traditions from the Orange Bowl will be moved to Dolphin Stadium including the team runningon the field through the smoke tunnel, the Miami Ring of Honor and "Touchdown Tommy," the cannon firedeach time the Hurricanes score.

"We are committed to providing the best facilities for our student-athletes and fans," said UM AthleticDirector Paul Dee. "The decision to move to Dolphin Stadium was made for that reason. Our student-ath-letes will be playing in one of the best facilities in the country and the 'fan experience' will be first-class."

UM football officials expect the move to help improve recruiting. "Hurricanes football has a strong tra-dition of attracting top student-athletes. The move to the stadium and the superior facilities that it offerswill greatly enhance our recruiting efforts," said football head coach Randy Shannon.

The University of Miami will continue to offer competitive and consistent ticket pricing. Exact ticketand parking prices will be announced by January 2008. The Athletic Department has established a link onwww.hurricanesports.com to answer specific questions of new or existing Hurricane Club and football sea-son ticket holders, or they may email [email protected] or call 1-800-GO-CANES.

MIAMI’S BAND OF BROTHERSIn an effort to build team unity, coach Randy Shannon screened episodes of HBO's “Band Of Brothers” to theteam through the August training camp. The entire team and coaching staff would gather together in theEdgerrin James team meeting room to watch the show.

The 10-part series, that ran on HBO in 2001 and was originally a best-selling book by Stephen Ambrose,is about the 101st Airborne’s Easy Company, a squad of paratroopers that landed at D-Day and eventuallycaptured Hitler’s “Eagle’s Nest” fortress at the end of the war.

Junior offensive lineman Chris Rutledge said, “It's a message of togetherness and unity in the heart of bat-tle. When bullets are flying around you, you know how to stay cool and calm under pressure, not make a mis-take and just know that your partner has your back. The team was always a unit, but this show has probablybrought us more together, just the concept of working harder together and trusting the person next to you thathe's going to do his job."

Punter Daren Daly commented, “It shows how unity and team and staying together is vital, whether you'reon the war front or the football field. It's a great show. The whole team, coaches all get together to watch."

And safety Willie Cooper added, "It has messages about overcoming fear, trust, things that are essentialto a team. Every time you watch you get a different meaning from it."

HURRICANES’ HIGH STANDARDSOne of the first things Randy Shannon did after Miami promoted him from defensive coordinator to headcoach in the offseason was gather his players and ask them to raise their hands if they've ever won a nation-al championship. Of course, none could. The Hurricanes haven't won a national title since 2001, and the play-er who has been around the longest, CB Glenn Sharpe, came aboard in 2002. Then Shannon told his play-ers how he won national titles as a player (1987), graduate assistant (1991) and defensive coordinator(2001).

"If you've never won one, trust me that I can show you how to do it," he recalled telling them.

PRETTY SPECIAL TOUCHDOWNSSpecial teams is the most overlooked of the three phases of football. But special teams dominance cannotbe undervalued at Miami. Since 2001, the Hurricanes have scored 16 special teams touchdowns in 15 dif-ferent games, all of which were UM victories. Below is the breakdown of Miami’s special teams touchdownsthe last six years:

16 Special teams TDs9 Punt return TDs 4 Blocked punt TDs2 Kickoff return TDs1 Blocked field goal TDsUM’s last special teams touchdown was in 2005 against North Carolina, a blocked punt.

MIAMI TIED FOR NATIONAL LEAD IN SCORES BY RETURN SINCE 1999Miami and Virginia Tech are now tied for the national lead for touchdowns on various returns dating back to1999. Miami led the nation for some time, but the Hokies returned an interception in their 2007 season open-er to move into a tie for first place with the Hurricanes.

HURRICANES AND BIG PLAYSMiami’s offense has proven over the years it can strike quickly, making the big play. The UM coaches gradean “explosive play” as a run of 18-plus yards or a pass of 25-plus yards, and that is a key factor in the team’ssuccess. Here’s a look at those big plays in 2007:

The last exceptionwas against Georgia Tech in 2006 when Glenn Cook returned a fumble 19 yards for a touchdown on the firstoffensive play of the game. However, Georgia Tech was able to overcome that lead in a 30-23 win. In 2006,Miami scored first in five of its 13 games.

MIAMI’S RECORD ACCORDING TO AP RANKUM is 246-62-2 all time in games while holding an Associated Press national ranking. Miami is 169-31-1 asa top 10 team and 130-17 as a top five team. The Hurricanes are 43-6 as the nation’s No.1-ranked team.Miami has won 32 of its last 34 games when ranked No. 1.

1988 ORANGE BOWL - (2) MIAMI 20, (1) OKLAHOMA 14FRIDAY, JANUARY 1, 1988ORANGE BOWL STADIUM

MIAMI (AP) -- For the second time in five years, the University of Miami Hurricanes were championsof the college football world. Just as they had done in 1983, the ’87 Hurricanes knocked off the nation’sNo.1-ranked team in the New Year’s Day Orange Bowl Classic. The second-ranked Hurricanes cappedthe school’s second straight undefeated regular season with a 20-14 victory over Oklahoma. Sophomorequarterback Steve Walsh hit on 18 of 30 passing attempts for 209 yards and two touchdowns. Senior full-back Melvin Bratton nearly broke a UM single game receiving mark by hauling in nine catches for 102yards before leaving the game with a knee injury. Bernard Clark stepped into the spotlight at middle line-backer and walked away with the game’s MVP award after recording 12 unassisted tackles and 14 over-all stops, while the entire defensive unit limited the Sooners to just 255 yards in total offense.

The Miami offense took the game’s first possession 65 yards for a score. Walsh fired a perfect 30-yard pass to Bratton, who had slipped past the Oklahoma secondary for the touchdown three minutesinto the game. The Hurricanes’ defense set set the tone early for an evening of frustration for theSooners’ vaunted wishbone attack. Oklahoma was forced to punt on its first five possessions of the half.The Sooners finally got on the scoreboard just before halftime after a Walsh pass was intercepted byRickey Dixon. Fifteen plays later, Oklahoma scored on a 1-yard run by halfback Anthony Stafford withnine seconds remaining in the half. In seven second-half possessions, Oklahoma was able to produceonly two drives of more than four plays. The Hurricanes’ first two drives of the second half accounted for24 plays and two scores. Senior placekicker Greg Cox established a Orange Bowl Classic record whenhe hit a 56-yard field goal with 8:52 remaining in the third quarter. Three OU plays and a punt set upanother Miami score. Miami drove the ball 64 yards on 13 plays, which ended with a Walsh to MichaelIrvin touchdown pass that brought the score to 17-7. With just under four minutes remaining in the game,Cox punctuated the Hurricanes’ scoring with another long field goal -- this time from 48 yards out.Oklahoma put together one last score with a trick play, as Sooners offensiver guard Mark Hutson ram-bled into the endzone after picking up a deliberate fumble by quarterback Charles Thompson with 2:05left in the game.

GAME 1 - MIAMI 31, MARSHALL 3SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 2007 - ORANGE BOWL

MIAMI (AP) - Randy Shannon's debut as coach of the Miami Hurricanes was a breeze. Javarris James ran for twotouchdowns, Tavares Gooden and Calais Campbell had interceptions to set up easy scoring drives, and the Hurricanesrecorded six sacks while beating Marshall 31-3 at the Orange Bowl.

Graig Cooper ran 12 times for 116 yards in his first college game, James rushed for 99 more and Kirby Freeman com-pleted 9 of 21 passes for 81 yards and a touchdown as Miami (1-0) won its final season-opener.

Bernard Morris completed 16 of 27 passes for 162 yards for Marshall (0-1), but he was intercepted three times. Unranked entering a season for the first time since 1998, Miami looked at the opener as its first chance to prove this

isn't the same sort of team that stumbled its way to a 7-6 record last season. The Hurricanes didn't waste time suggest-ing their new coach will change things around.

Shannon is a Miami native, was a star linebacker at the school and spent 14 years as a Hurricanes assistant. He wasdefensive coordinator the past six seasons under Larry Coker, who was fired in November and watched Saturday fromthe Orange Bowl's third floor -- as a TV analyst.

Shannon probably liked most of what he saw, too. Gooden caught Morris' deflected pass midway through the opening quarter and ran it back 35 yards to the Marshall

1 -- not scoring only because Morris hopped on his back inside the 5 and eventually wrestled him down. On the next play,Freeman hit DajLeon Farr with a scoring pass that put Miami up 10-0.

Campbell's interception came with 3 1/2 minutes left in the second period. The 6-foot-8 defensive end released froma blocker and made a one-handed snare of Morris' pass, getting taken down at the Marshall 24. James scored on a 5-yard run three plays later for a 17-0 edge.

James pushed the lead to 24-0 with 7:06 left in the third with a 5-yard score. His 50-yard run on that drive was nulli-fied by a holding penalty, but Cooper took off on a 56-yard scamper one play later to set up the Hurricanes' third touch-down.

Anthony Binswanger's 37-yard field goal with 13:37 remaining ensured Marshall would avoid the shutout. Tight end Chris Zellner recovered a fumble in the end zone with 1:51 left for Miami's final touchdown.
