The 2025 Miami Hurricanes football team represent the University of Miami in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) during the 2025 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The Hurricanes are led by Mario Cristobal in his fourth year as head coach. Their home games are played at Hard Rock Stadium located in Miami Gardens, Florida.

This season marks the 100th anniversary of Miami Hurricanes football. Led by former Georgia quarterback Carson Beck, the team started 5-0 for the second consecutive year and ranked No. 2 in the polls before being upset by Louisville. After a 26–20 overtime loss to SMU, which fell the Hurricanes down to No. 18 in the polls, they closed the regular season with four consecutive wins. The team finished with a 10–2 regular season record, and 6–2 in ACC play, finishing second in a five-way tie for No. 2 in the ACC, only behind the eventual ACC champion Duke. They were selected for the 2025–26 College Football Playoff and were selected as the No. 10 seed in the final rankings.

Miami started their playoff run by defeating No. 7 Texas A&M 10–3, aided with a game-ending interception from Bryce Fitzgerald. ^[2] Then, they upset the defending national champions, the Ohio State Buckeyes at the Cotton Bowl, as a 9.5-point underdog, winning 24–14. ^[3] This was Miami’s first victory in a major bowl game since the 2004 Orange Bowl. They then advanced to the Fiesta Bowl against Ole Miss, where they won 31–27, thanks to Carson Beck's 3-yard touchdown scramble in the waning moments of the game. ^[4] Miami advanced to the College Football Playoff National Championship, their first championship appearance since the 2002 season. Miami is the first team to play for the national championship in their home stadium since the Hurricanes during the 1995 Orange Bowl, and the first since the creation of the national championship game as a game separated from the bowl system.
